What do I gain by upgrading to PlanetPress Connect?
PlanetPress Watch users
When upgrading to PlanetPress Connect, you receive key features of PlanetPress Office such
as the following:
l Ability to input data from PDF
l Ability to print your PlanetPress Suite documents on any Windows printer (no need for
printer licenses)
l Ability to create standard PDF output from your PlanetPress Suite documents
l Even if you don’t recreate your existing PlanetPress Suite documents, you can easily
change your workflow to convert your output to PDF, then output them in PCL to any
device supporting it.
NOTE: If you were a PlanetPress Production user, you retain all functionalities within
PlanetPress Workflow 8. These are automatically imported during the activation (see below).
Re-purpose your existing documents
IMPORTANT: PlanetPress Suite users covered by a valid OL Care contract receive a “Print
only” version of PlanetPress Connect which can produce printed output. If you also own
PlanetPress Imaging, which can produce PDF, Tiff and other archive formats, you will also
receive a new version.
The full version of PlanetPress Connect can open your company to the digital world by
enabling you to send HTML responsive emails as well as creating dynamic responses and
interactive web pages. All that for a minimal fee. For more information on the full version of
PlanetPress Connect, contact your reseller or your Objectif Lune Account Manager.
Upgrade to the full multi-channel version and expand onto the Web
If you choose to take the optional “multi-channel” upgrade, you can start right away to reuse the
content of your existing documents and map it onto responsive documents that can be sent by
email in full HTML glory and/or make them available as native HTML web pages using the
latest CSS/JavaScript features.
IMPORTANT: If you owned them, you must also upgrade your Imaging modules to use the new
PReS version.
