The Long-Awaited Griffin 24.03 is Out!

Griffin 24.03 adds integration with Adobe Acrobat and PitStop Pro, plus expanded ONYX functionality for your nesting workflow.

25 March 2024 · by Germen Kroon

Roughly a year after Enfocus (Esko) acquired developer Tilia Labs, the development team has built integrations with Adobe Acrobat and PitStop Pro and further expanded the ONYX functionality in the application.

New features in version 24.03

Opening files in an external editor

The new "Open in editor" button in the file or layout view lets you open selected files directly in your default editor. This makes it quick to perform tasks such as preflighting or other production modifications — think of creating a cutting path, bleed or other requested customer changes. As soon as you save the file, Griffin automatically detects the modifications and prompts you to update the files accordingly.

ONYX export

The print export feature gains a RIP workflow option called "ONYX". With it you deliver combined print/cut PDF jobs straight to the ONYX workflow, streamlining RIP operations.

About Griffin

Griffin specializes in automating large-format nesting. The software is available in two versions:

  • Griffin Desktop — a user-friendly tool for Mac and Windows that lets you create nests quickly.

  • Griffin Auto — an automated API version for Linux, Mac and Windows, integrating with Enfocus Switch or via a custom REST API solution.
