Case Study: Aller Media achieves stable, efficient softproofing and faster job setup with DALIM SOFTWARE's ES

Aller Media - Customer Case Study

Aller Media, one of Sweden’s leading consumer‑magazine publishers with over 40 titles (including Allers and the Swedish edition of Elle), produces thousands of pages each week and was constrained by hardcopy proofing and aging PRINTEMPO infrastructure. To modernize softproofing and upgrade servers/software, Aller Media worked with DALIM SOFTWARE, initially using DALIM’s PRINTEMPO for calibrated softproofing and then evaluating a move to DALIM’s ES platform.

DALIM SOFTWARE’s PRINTEMPO implementation (with calibrated Eizo displays and a modified Fogra 39 profile) removed the need for routine printed proofs, letting many editorial users review, approve and annotate pages online; DALIM then supported Aller Media’s migration to ES (ES 3 and ES 4), delivering greater stability, automated job setup and faster workflows. About two‑thirds of Aller’s titles are already on ES, proof printing and printer‑proof requests have been reduced, and the publisher anticipates completing the rollout ahead of schedule in March.
