This is the third year in a row that EskoArtwork products have been recognised: last year Esko DeskPack 3-dX received an InterTech Award, while in 2006 Esko WebCenter received a similar distinction. PIA/GATF sponsors the InterTech Technology Awards as a service to the industry in order to spotlight the wide range of technologies that contribute to the advancement of techniques and processes used in the graphic arts.

InterTech Award judges said, “This provides an unprecedented level of stand-alone PDF editing and eliminates any downside of PDF. The ability to edit virtually anything, including fonts, without going back to the original document is outstanding.”

“We regard it an extreme honor that EskoArtwork products have received PIA/GATF InterTech Technology Awards in three successive years,” remarked Carsten Knudsen, EskoArtwork President and CEO.

EskoArtwork Neo is a stand-alone native PDF 1.7 viewer and editor that corrects both text and object content in multipage PDF files.

“We started using EskoArtwork Neo to achieve our quality and costs targets. Imtech Graphics is running a fully native PDF workflow, and we needed a tool to check the production PDF files. We use Neo to check spot colors in a job, black overprints, and Total Area Coverage,” commented Mike Connelly, Director of Prepress, Imtech Graphics.
