The designer and proofer components are built with HTML5 and Java Script; therefore they work on many devices including tablets and phones. The PDF builder component is a cloudbased web service. The DaVinci proofer component creates 3D digital proofs of a design. These models can be freely rotated by the user, allowing them to see how the chosen processes interact with light. The DaVinci PDF builder component creates a print-ready PDF for each process, using the layers in the designer to add or subtract from the process-specific PDF as appropriate.
