Hi
We have a job from a long time user of VDF, to re-write their labelling software.
Basically the current software is using Winprint, in a heavily modified state, with some high specification label printers.
An animal goes down the line, and is weighed and graded, the printer spits out a label with a barcode, and text, the text may be in one of a number of languages, (Chinese, English, German, French at present).
A label is produced at least once every 30 seconds, and often every 15 seconds.
The user wants the ability to modify the label themselves instead of having to wait for us to do it, as changes can be needed with virtually no notice.
What we have been advised to use is Crystal, (supply them a copy too), however if VRW can handle this we would greatly prefer it to Crystal.
Hence our questions are:
1. Is VRW likely to be able to handle this?
2. How far away is a release of VRW likely to be?
We will hold of purchasing Crystal while we wait for a response from the DAW Team.
Thanks
