When you standardize how you process jobs you remove many of the variables in print production. Workflow systems can do this for you.

EFI OneFlow
EFI OneFlow is a hot folder driven workflow system. Unlike JDF, the job specs are contained in a hot folder and not in the job ticket file. Dropping PDF, PostScript, TIFF or other files into the hot folder starts the job moving through the system. Operators can then track it, see its status and approve/disapprove it at any step.
