Let's do some cash flow math: You
can pay $4795 up front for FlexiSIGN-Pro.
(Let's round that off to a $4,800.00 expense for the
year - NO upgrades included.)
Or you can buy a Flexi Online
Subscription annual plan - ALL upgrades included, so
you'll never fall behind! (Bug Fixes, New Features, New
Printer Drivers, New Cutter Drivers, Import Filters,
etc.)
Breaking it down, the Flexi
version, based on Pro, costs you $49.95 USD/month.
(Let's round that off to $57.00 CAD/month, based on the
current exchange rate.) $57 X 12 months means you'll
spend only $684 in the same year.
This saves you $4,116.00 on Flexi
for the year, freeing up much needed cash for other
important expenditures! Actually, it's much more,
given that you never have to dig deep for important
upgrades. At some point it always becomes necessary to
upgrade, which normally averages between $300 and $400
per year.
Divide $4,800 by $684, and you'll also
notice that you now have more than 7 years to spend
the same amount of moneyon yourFlexi
Subscription that you would have spent up front on
the non-subscription version! This makes excellent cash
flow sense.
Also available in Flexi Design
version. Month-to-month plans also available.

media savings for print-and-cut jobs with
the new contour cut true shape nesting,
which automatically rotates and nests images
based on their actual shape. Import multiple
bitmaps or vector images into Flexi, add a
contour cut path and true shape nest them –

How do I do this?
New
Design Features
-
Artwork Approval Tool: Save time
and get designs approved quicker using
Flexi’s new Artwork Approval tool. Send
designs directly to customers so they can
review and comment on the artwork through
their web browser. Your SAi Cloud account
automatically tracks each approval project
and revision, as well as notifies you when
customers have reviewed or approved artwork.
How do I do this?
New
Design Features
- QR
and Data Matrix Code Generation: The
new QR Code Creator in Flexi Design makes it
fast and easy to add interactive elements to
your customer’s signage. The new tool
automatically converts text into a QR code
of the correct type for web links, email
addresses, phone numbers and SMS messages.
Also create Data Matrix codes for customers
needing inventory labels. Both the QR and
Data Matrix Code creators work seamlessly
with Flexi’s Auto Serialization Tool,

of codes for variable-data print jobs.
How do I do this?
New
Production Manager Features - Banner and
Canvas Finishing Tools:
Dramatically reduce your time finishing
pop-up banners, hanging banners and canvas
artwork. With these new tools you can
prepare all finishing aspects of banners –
including grommet marks, folds, stitch marks
and bleeds in a matter of seconds. This
especially saves you finishing time on
longer print runs where you would have
manually marked grommets. Also use the
auto-bleed and marks for quick preparation
of canvas jobs.
How do I do this?
New
Production Manager Features - Quick View in
Production Manager: Get a faster
view of your jobs in queue with the improved
Production Manager interface. Click on a job
to see a thumbnail preview along with the
job’s details.
New
Production Manager Features -

alignment controls give you fast job nesting
placement across roll or sheet-fed media.
Nest a group of jobs on the right, center or
left of your media. Also align jobs along
their edges for faster and easier cutting.
New
Production Manager Features -
Choke and
Bleed for Metallic and White Ink Printing: Print
with metallic and white inks more easily
with new settings to apply Choke or Bleed
for each spot ink channel. Save even more
time by saving the settings to a Preset that
will automatically apply to new print jobs.
This eliminates the need for time-consuming
spot ink setup in design software.
New
Production Manager Features -
CleanColor™
for Pure Hue Printing: The new
CleanColor setting produces more accurate,
vibrant colors when using the Pure Hue
feature in Production Manager. Without
CleanColor, the Pure Hue feature turns off
color management for single, double and grey
ink channel combinations. Using CleanColor
gives you prints with more vibrant reds,
greens and blues than you would get with
color management alone.
New
Production Manager Features -
Smoother
Print Gradients Using Stochastic Dot
Pattern: Get smoother gradients
when you print with the new “Stochastic 2”
dot pattern. Especially notice smoother PDF
and Postscript gradients on larger prints,

decreased RIP speed performance.
New
Production Manager Features -

Job Tiling: Get increased
automation and produce tiled print jobs
quicker by applying Presets that can now
