Canon has announced the launch of PosterArtist v1.1, a new version of its web-based design software for the creation of posters, banners and signage, enabling two-sided and variable printing as well as offering new templates for a wide array of applications including large-format graphics. PosterArtist v1.1 allows users like PSPs to easily create professional-level designs to print on selected Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX, imageRUNNER, and imagePRESS Series of printers. The software is also compatible with selected imageCLASS laser printers for small business use, imagePROGRAF large-format printers and PIXMA home printers.
PosterArtist version 1.1 allows users to create flyers for retail stores, menus for restaurants and many other applications. By using the variable printing function, users can print applications, such as certificates, by importing text data from an Excel file and adding it to the design. Combining two-sided printing and variable printing, users can design and print two-sided applications, while including personalised details such as the name of a customer, their appointment time, etc. Canon has added the new templates for applications such as flyers, menus, calendars, and photo collages, in addition to a variety of existing poster designs.
