Loftware, Inc., the global
leader in Enterprise Labeling and Artwork Management Solutions, today announced
the availability of Loftware Spectrum 4.0. This latest release of Loftware’s
flagship Enterprise Labeling Solution enables users to design label printing
applications purpose-built for mobile devices, which streamlines global
labeling processes. Spectrum 4.o also introduces a new user interface (UI) to
enhance usability and leverages Loftware’s DaVinci feature to provide powerful
label comparison to speed label design and review.
Spectrum’s HTML5 user interface
is optimized for mobile devices, including IOS devices, to allow customers to
manage label printing and related business processes from anywhere, whether
factory floor, warehouse or in the field. The streamlined interface maximizes
productivity and further extends access to additional supply chain users.
The new user interface combined
with Spectrum’s Application Architect feature provides customers with unlimited
flexibility to configure and run applications for all of their labeling and
non-labeling related activities. This enables global users and supply chain
partners to print labels on demand, track print job status or perform other
functions with ease on any type of device. Users can also run applications
outside the Spectrum interface which are purpose-built and branded for their
use.
Loftware DaVinci provides
sophisticated label comparison capabilities to speed label creation and
review/approval process. Users can compare label templates directly while
designing labels, or as part of a Spectrum application which is part of a
broader workflow process. With DaVinci, users can toggle between high
resolution label versions to quickly proof content and highlight differences.
DaVinci lets users identify label duplicates and reduces the number of label
templates they need to manage.
“Loftware’s end-to-end digital
platform is redefining how enterprises create, manage and print complex
labeling and packaging artwork and scale across their operations. With this new
release we extend our leadership by offering the next level of user experience
along with innovative capabilities that only Loftware can provide,” stated
Loftware VP of Product Management, Josh Roffman.
Spectrum 4.0 further enhances
the user experience by offering enhanced navigation that provides easy access
to key functions like label design, status, applications and printing. The
release also introduces new colors and styles and a redesigned user workspace
to maximize productivity. Also, the new user interface is designed to meet the
performance requirements of both on premise and cloud deployments.
Additionally, Spectrum 4.0 adds
an enhanced barcode wizard which streamlines creation and management of
barcodes, including GS1 endorsed barcodes. Label designers can save time and
ensure accuracy using Spectrum’s barcode wizard which guides them through the
necessary steps to generate industry standard barcodes. Spectrum 4.0 offers
expanded support for high resolution scalable vector graphics (SVG) and
provides enhancements to the configurable REST API, further expanding
Spectrum’s extensive web services capabilities.
