PHILADELPHIA, March 30 /PRNewswire/ -- NowDocs today announced the launch and
immediate availability of NowPrint 7.0, a major upgrade to the NowPrint
web-to-print platform. Most visible in the upgrade is a new Web 2.0 user
interface - which includes further extension of NowPrint's flexibility in
creating truly unique online experiences per customer.

"Print service providers on NowPrint want the ability to create online
experiences that leverage their intimate knowledge of each customer, from
integrated authentication, unique product catalogs, payment methods, and
delivery options - with NowPrint 7.0 we take it a few steps further by adding
the ability to create unique themes and customize any text in the user
experience on a per customer basis," says Jennifer Matt, President of NowDocs.


XMPie Enabled VDP
NowPrint 7.0 represents the first major extension of our scalable, plug-in
approach to variable data printing. All NowPrint customers receive basic
variable data capabilities which utilize the built in components of Adobe
InDesign, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Publisher - allowing printers to crawl
before they walk/run with no additional investment. Now our customers have the
option to utilize the desktop tools from XMPie to create templates for the
NowPrint catalog which are then configured using NowPrint's new composition
engine agnostic WebForm - a common interface for configuring all personalized
products no matter the technology that ultimately composes the output.

Active Previewer
Because the tools that enable rich internet experiences have evolved -
NowPrint 7.0 can deliver our new Active Preview utilizing the latest web
technology. With this component we preview in real time user selected print
specifications (based on the printers capabilities) to preview on the users
content. Users can literally page through their assembled and specified print
order before they commit to the transaction.

SaaS - Integrated Authentication
A single sign on (SSO) experience is now an expectation when print service
providers serve a captive customer community (e.g., in-plants). NowPrint has
always supported integrated authentication, with NowPrint 7.0 we extend this
single sign-on user experience in a SaaS model. Using Microsoft's ADFS (Active
Directory Federation Services) we support secure, integrated authentication
between our enterprise hosting facilities and our customer's network. ADFS has
been in a production pilot since October 2008.

NowPrint 7.0 is available immediately, for more information please visit
