We feel privileged to be able to work together with one of the world-leading companies in PDF-based workflow solutions."
Enfocus says this about Agfa's Apogee Series3:
Apogee Series3 expands the capabilities of the award-winning Apogee solution even further. This digital workflow offers automation, control, openness, scalability, and ease of use. It brings new efficiency to the entire operation and helps streamline the flow of jobs—saving time and reducing costs.
