JDF Workflow: A Guide to Automation in the Graphic Communications Industry
Job Definition Format (JDF) and Job Messaging Format (JMF), based on the XML standard, provide one of the most important recent innovations for the automation of print production. JDF Workflow: A Guide to Automation in the Graphic Communications Industry, demonstrates that it is more than just a data format by providing a comprehensive examination of the format as well as the workflow that can be built with the help of JDF.

There are currently four entries in this section: The first video shows and explains the type of work done at an Interop face-to-face meeting. In the next, Dr. Rainer Prosi, CIP4's Chief Technical Officer, discusses CIP4 technologies of (X)JDF and their impact in the printing industry. The third entry is a link to Solimar Systems video interview about JDF. The last post is a link to the CIP4 expert training videos. It is a series of 13 videos that explains in detail the basic features of JDF and its applications.
Twice a year, CIP4 organizes Face-to-Face meetings: InterOps.
These InterOp meetings are organized worldwide and are split into two distinct phases, the technical interoperability testing phase and technical work group phase.

Link to Solimar Systems' video interview about JDF
Video interview between Drew Sprague, President of Solimar Systems and Pat McGrew from McGrewGroup, discussing some of the benefits, capabilities and use cases for JDF and XJDF. The Solimar Systems workflow automation software platform, named Chemistry, offers several integrated suites which can generate JDF Job tickets as well as read and write JDF, XJDF and JMF.
The CIP4 expert training videos can be viewed or downloaded from the the tutorial page on Confluence. Please follow the link.
The presentations were created for certain events such as seminars, fairs, congresses, etc. The respective creators of the presentations are responsible for the content. CIP4 does not guarantee the accuracy of the slides.
The following CIP4 white papers present some aspects of(X)JDF in a concise way to give you an easy introduction to this complex subject. The aim is to provide you with a technical overview of a specific topic in just a few pages.
PDF and JDF – The second Generation
Published 2023 jointly by CIP4 and BVDM
The specifications for PDF and CIP4 JDF have recently experienced their first major version stage. The new formats for PDF 2.0 and CIP4 XJDF (JDF 2.x) enable a wealth of innovative applications related to document exchange and workflow automation. Two current bvdm white papers show what potential the new standards hold for the industry. A recent paper published jointly by CIP4 and BVDM summarizes the major findings of the technologies".
