Adiict CDF is an editorial flatplan system designed to manage the production of magazines, catalogs, brochures, books, etc.
Each flatplan is structured according to the print layout configuration, meaning it follows the imposition and pagination requirements.
Adiict CDF automatically generates PDF files for each page, based on the specifications of each signature.
Additionally, Adiict CDF delegates certain tasks to Enfocus Switch, such as:
Adiict CDF Connect ensures communication between your Switch workflows and your editorial system, Adiict CDF (Flatplan).

Similarly, if Adiict CDF requests PDF delivery to the printer via Enfocus Switch, Adiict CDF Connect can report whether the file has been successfully delivered or not.
If your Switch workflows require specific publication data, Adiict CDF Connect allows you to retrieve information about a title or issue number.
For example, if you receive advertisements through an automated workflow and you know the title and issue number, you can request the location of the production folder to send the assets directly to the production team.
You can also retrieve metadata linked to a title code (such as title name, editorial team, sector, domain, or publisher).
