Re: Gems - Ballot On Demand

Title:
 

Official response:

Global has contracted with RX Laser to deliver Ballot On Demand functionality.  Requests relating to BOD should be directed to them.  The GEMS Print Artwork dialog is not, and was not designed to be, a Ballot On Demand printing system.  It is designed to generate postscript files to create typesetter's plates for printing. 

RXLaser only helped Global with VTS accounts.  They used a conversion program to take PostScript Files and turn them into condensed PCL files.  They would then place these onto a CD for the customer.  They cannot do the same with GEMS ballot artwork files.  Because the HP printer drivers change constantly, the file output changed constantly.  They couldn't write a conversion program to convert the GEMS Postscript Files into Condensed PCL.  So RXLaser is out of the picture for GEMS BOD accounts.
