| Three
kinds of boxes – numbered text boxes, dynamic
text boxes and image boxes. |

Example
of imaging illustrating number, placement, scaling,
rotation and transparency of images based on
variable data (10 pages). [view

N-Up
color postcards illustrating use of image boxes
to make use of a variety of images – fitting
them to image boxes without the need for manual
“grooming” of the images. Images and
message selected from variables in the recipient
file and client file(s). [view

Jet
Letter PSL/PDF supports a truly comprehensive
set of “typesetting” controls. Many
tools normally thought of as tools for static
typesetting can be applied to variable text.
Scaling (anisotropic), filling with solid colors
or patterns, and printing on curves are but
a few examples. [view

Mathematically
generated figures can be based on variable data.
For example, in this case the colors and their
transparency were based on variable data. [view

| Set
type under mathematical controls based on variables
in the database. Choose a letter (from a string),
compute where you want it, its orientation, and
a host of other parameters such as color , transparency,
font, or fill, and “set” it. [view

Anisotropic
scaling based on database variables or mathematical
computations. All of this was done with one image,
scaled, mirrored, and color filled. Rotation by
any amount could also be applied. [view

|
| Dynamic
text boxes permit a wide variety of control of
text printed to them. Notice the (somewhat absurd)
use of setting maximum spacing between words,
permitted in this example to be quite large, to
arrive at both left and right justification in
the newspaper example of two words. [view

Set
type on circles or parts of circles (arcs). Notice
control of transparency on overlapping text. [view

| This
image was created using mathematical control of
the text printed via rotation and color saturation
based on an algorithm. Users have complete color
control based on either RGB or CMYK color models.

Complete
control, by variables if desired, of both CMYK
and RGB colors. [view

Control
of TrueType (TM) fonts including slant and transparency,
in this case, permits addition of variable messages
to static (PDF, GIF, TIFF, etc.) backgrounds
to achieve the ultimate in personalization.
(Note the variable message on the floor.)

PSL
has strong functions for manipulationg and formatting
tabular data. Cells can be assigned background
colors, line weights and colors, and all manner
of typesetting functionality such as font and
alignment parameters. [view

PSL
gives you a very robust kit of tools to create
PDFs based on variable text and variable images.
