“Speed, Speed and more Speed! No other system can compare to the speed and ease-of-use of NewsWay. We used another workflow system for more than a year, but NewsWay’s flexibility and proven reliability made the change necessary, and very worthwhile. We now have the ability to add fan-out and creep to our plates, and have both a tab and broadsheet configuration in the same product. By embedding and load balancing the RIPs within the workflow we are able to maximize throughput, and save valuable time. We used to have to print separations out of Quark - now we send composite files to ProImage’s Harlequin RIPs.”                                  Eric Gilmour, Tyler Morning Telegraph Ad Graphics Manager.    "We selected NewsWay due to its flexibility. The system allows each site to set-up complex workflows the way they want, yet NewsWay is so simple to use, production staff with little or no computer experience learn to use the system within a couple of days. NewsWay is a fundamental part of a CTP strategy, and will provide us a clear return on our investment."                                  Gary Blakeley, director of purchasing, Freedom Communications   "We have now survived a full weekend of producing the largest papers of the week, with the smallest staffs, on our new NewsWay workflow system. It works just as promised and it does so very elegantly. Within a little over one month from the start of installation we have achieved the goal, while significantly reducing production costs and improving print quality. We all, especially IT and prepress staff, highly regard ProImage's professionalism and thank its staff for helping us get there, on time."                                       Suzanne Barrett, IT manager, Lehman Communications Corp.   "The complex task of interfacing with so many disparate systems, managing the flow of data for three separate papers, producing soft and hard proofs, and reporting on progress against the agreed schedule, is seamlessly accomplished by the NewsWay system. Any user that we authorize can check on job progress from anywhere, simply by using a standard browser."                                 Andy Swanton, Central New York Newspapers' project manager   "We selected NewsWay for several reasons, including its distributed processing architecture that provides us with enormous scalability as well as back-up redundancy, its ability to provide us with customized workflows, and because it is proven browser-based technology. Because we produce weekly newspapers serving more than 50 communities, various bi-weeklies and about 100 commercial jobs each week, a high degree of flexibility is essential. NewsWay will take most of the manual handling away. It also allows us the flexibility to select our CtP solution later. In addition, and valuably, ProImage allows the use of as many browser clients as we wish - without additional cost."                                   Shane Butcher, director of technology, Post-Newsweek Media   "We have a lot of aging equipment here, and that includes our flexo presses. That hasn't prevented us from installing new technology. NewsWay makes what we have more efficient and productive, and its reporting capabilities keeps us better informed. "Our technicians are ecstatic; we can now do things, such as remote proofing, that previously were not possible. In today's prepress digital process we need to be able to accept files in formats not only for printing, but also for distribution. NewsWay does this, and benefits us by merging, stitching, proofing and distributing."   Pat Izzo, production director of production operations, The San Francisco Chronicle   "During our research we visited lots of CtP sites using a variety of workflow solutions. There was a high degree of satisfaction amongst the NewsWay users that we visited, but it was also NewsWay's ease-of use, flexibility and the cost-effectiveness of ownership that made the decision easy for us." "The new presses will come on-stream next summer and will bring new product and new zoning capabilities, as well as new opportunities in commercial printing and advertising pre-prints. We also plan a change in web width. The ProImage solution will allow us to easily and quickly adapt to these changes."                                                         Randy Waters, VP of production, Kansas City Star   "Going live with the new system, barely 36 hours after the technicians arrived, is testimony to our faith in NewsWay software and in ProImage's ability," said. "Judging from the outcome, early to press by 45 minutes, it was a good move. Getting CtP up and running so quickly also showed users of the system that it is reliable and uncomplicated."                    Patrick Holmes, associate publisher and executive editor, The Free Press   "Ease of use was one of the driving factors in selecting NewsWay. Since installing NewsWay however we've found that we have lowered the overall time it takes to output editions. We have also drastically cut the number of page output errors such as pages flushing and PostScript errors. In addition, we are increasing the accountability of both editorial and production departments with use of the system's reporting and monitoring of page flow."                                            Chris Yates, new media and IT director, The Island Packet   "NewsWay is the only product on the market that fully meets the workflow needs of The Wenatchee World. In addition, no other product reviewed by The World offered a full featured cross-platform capability; we will be one of the first installations to fully use NewsWay on a Mac. Also, since NewsWay is browser based, we are not forced to purchase individual licenses and install specific applications on each workstation. Stephen Schroeder, director of production and strategic initiatives, The Wenatchee World   "If you're looking for a company that reacts to your needs and delivers what you want, this (ProImage) is the company. They customize their workflow to make your job easier. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about newspaper workflow. They react quickly to your needs and deliver what you want. Modifications are never an issue. The financial benefit in staff savings over the years is countless."                                           Pat Izzo, prepress operations director, Detroit Newspapers
