Conversen, Inc Partners with Bitstream Inc. to Offer Digital Printing
02/22/2010
Conversen Inc. and Bitstream Inc. announced that they have brought Pageflex digital print capabilities into the Conversen platform to offer Conversen clients a powerful marketing advantage. Building on its industry-leading technology to deliver content in any channel, including email, web, SMS, RSS, and social media, Conversen has licensed Bitstream's Pageflex(R) Server software, and has now released version 4.1 of its platform, making variable digital print a fully supported channel. This move adds digital print to the broad list of channels already supported by Conversen, while bringing the offline and online marketing worlds closer together. Where other solutions simply provide dynamic data files to printers, the Conversen platform now enables users to have full control over their variable digital print assets. Document templates are designed in the powerful desktop Pageflex Studio software, and then imported into Conversen's cross-channel content library, where business rules drive the variable composition of these templates using both demographic and relational data sources, as well as Conversen's unique activity- and response-based logic. The result is a highly personalized, print-ready, digital asset that can be downloaded and printed locally, or uploaded to commercial digital printers in one of a dozen supported formats. Additionally, full CASS/NCOA and Postal Pre-Sort rules can be applied to print campaigns, providing printers with the necessary mail-ready files and reducing printer costs by as much as 50%.
