Fiery EXP8000/50 variable data printing
The Fiery EXP8000/50 combines variable data printing languages, third-party variable data
printing applications, and Fiery EXP8000/50 core features to integrate into many existing
workflows. For more information about variable data printing workflows, see
printing applications, and Fiery EXP8000/50 core features to integrate into many existing

Compatible variable data printing languages
The Fiery EXP8000/50 is compatible with the following variable data printing languages:
• FreeForm and FreeForm 2
FreeForm and FreeForm 2 are used with variable data software solutions. FreeForm
technology reusable data is RIPped only once, enabling the digital press to run faster.

FreeForm supports the creation of master elements and variable data from any desktop
application or computer platform. Within the application, the master page is assigned a
number from 1 to 100. FreeForm options are found in the driver, the job management
tools, and Hot Folders. For more information about FreeForm, see

FreeForm 2 expands FreeForm technology by allowing you to determine page conditions
and rules for printing a job containing multiple master pages. It also allows you to define
the boundaries of each record in the data stream. This means defining a start and end for
each record. Unlike FreeForm, FreeForm 2 requires a variable data printing application
(for example, PrintShop Mail-Fiery Version) that specifically supports FreeForm 2. For

• Personalized Print Markup Language (PPML) version 2.2
PPML, an XML-based language developed by PODi, is considered an industry standard.
PPML allows the digital press to store text elements and graphic elements and reuse them
as needed, making variable data jobs print faster.

The Fiery EXP8000/50 accepts zipped and non-zipped PPML jobs. To print documents
in PPML format, use a third-party application that is compatible with PPML format.
Send the PPML job to the Fiery EXP8000/50 or download the PPML file using
Command WorkStation

PPML version 2.2 files created using either the IMPOSITION or PRINT_LAYOUT
commands specified from the PPML application are not supported on the Fiery EXP8000/

VIPP is a proprietary page-description language developed by Xerox.
To print documents in Xerox VIPP format, use a third-party application that is compatible
with Xerox VIPP format. Send the Xerox VIPP job or download the Xerox VIPP file using
Command WorkStation or Hot Folders.
