We are saddened to share that Adobe co-founder Dr. John Warnock has passed
away at 82. His brilliance shaped Adobe and the wider industry. Working closely
with Dr. Chuck Geschke, who passed away in April 2021, Warnock sparked the
desktop publishing revolution with Adobe PostScript. Other Adobe innovations
such as PDF, Acrobat, Illustrator, and Photoshop are also part of his legacy. John’s
contributions to the development of the first digital fonts enabled the output of
scalable type. Widely acknowledged as one of our generation's greatest inventors
and recognized with awards, including the National Medal of Technology and
Innovation, his impact on the world is profound. As a visionary, John's wisdom
enriched us all. Though he's left us, his spirit and impact endure. We extend our
heartfelt condolences to his family. Let's honor him by pushing the boundaries,
just as he did.

With millions of A3 devices shipped yearly powered by Adobe Embedded Print Engine (AEPE), AEPE continues to solidify and expand its position in the office/enterprise printing segment. This
quarter, Ricoh took another stride forward by launching the AEPE-powered IM 460F, a new A3
device. This compact unit caters to customers primarily using A4 but occasionally needing A3
printing. AEPE’s strengths, however, extends beyond A3, gaining recognition as the best in class
rendering technology in the A4 segment. Meanwhile, Canon unveiled successor devices for its
imageRUNNER ADVANCE DX C259/C359 series, efficient 35 ppm compact A4 color devices. AEPE
is pivotal in enhancing performance and quality for both Ricoh and Canon devices.

On July 28, version 6.2 of Adobe PDF Print Engine (APPE) was released for distribution to OEM and RIP vendor partners. It includes several fixes, 5 new features, and 2 platform upgrades. The
distributed RIP framework has migrated to the Intel MPI (Message Passing Interface), which
breaks through the ceiling of 64 simultaneous instances in prior versions, enabling unlimited
scalability for high-volume VDP workflows running on the Mercury RIP Architecture e Partner
systems built on MacOS may now directly implement external Color Management Modules
(CMMs), and APPE is installed with a Mac Universal binary, which runs natively on Apple Silicon
M1 chips. The new features include an enhancement to the bicubic image upsampling algorithm, first introduced in APPE 6.1, enabling sophisticated scaling of color-indexed images and
much faster processing. If your company plans to release a product based on APPE 6.3, please
complete the self-certification using the standard form.
