GlobalVision, Hybrid Software Introduce Strategic Partnership GlobalVision, automated proofreading and quality con- trol software company, and Hybrid Software, developer of software for labels and packaging printing, have partnered to simplify and speed up prepress quality workflows with the announcement of the new turnkey solution inside of CLOUDFLOW. Checking For Quality The availability of GlobalVision’s VerifyAPI in Hybrid Software’s workflow software, CLOUDFLOW, embeds quality checks directly within the prepress workflow, automating tasks like artwork verification, barcode and QR code checks, spell check, and braille inspection— providing print-ready files at any scale, according to the companies. VerifyAPI is provided as a workflow solution that in- tegrates directly into CLOUDFLOW, allowing administra- tors to sculpt inspection logic into existing quality con- trol processes. Mehtaflex Opts For Soma Optima2 Flexo Press Mehtaflex, reportedly one of India’s pioneers in CI flexog- raphic printing, has installed a Optima2 flexographic print- ing press from Soma.
