Variable Data (Part 2) The Revolution

Start Out Simple

The easiest place to start is on the production end, since that is your primary business. Look first to monochrome VDP. If you don't have any experience, Microsoft Word and Excel mail merge functions are the best places to start. Migrating from there to full color mail-merge is the next step. After that you can start playing with forms drivers like EFI's Fiery Freeform 1, which works on a variety of printers including Canon and Xerox, or if running a Kodak/ Canon/IBM 9110, you can use Kodak's Imagesource Forms Driver.
