The table below lists the file formats that OPI supports and does not
support.
Supported
Not Supported
EPS (RGB, grayscale, bitmap, CMYK, LAB, monotone, Photoshop
duotone), Scitex APR
JPEG TIFF (JIFF)
Scitex .e linked to CMYK TIFF, CMYK DCS, CMYK + spot DCS, and
multiple Scitex .e linked to a single HiRes file
Scitex .e linked to spot TIFF
TIFF (RGB, grayscale, bitmap, CMYK, LAB, LZW-compressed, JPEG-
compressed)
TIFF/IT
Scitex CT (CMYK, grayscale
CT (RGB)
JPEG-encoded EPS (composite PostScript)
JPEG-encoded DCS (separated

JPEG 2000
PDF (Some software such as InDesign allows you to omit placed PDFs
for replacement with OPI. This is supported with Prinergy OPI.)
*Photoshop DCS 1.0 in a composite workflow. Formats supported: 8-bit
binary and ASCII Hex data format, 1-bit Copydot
1-bit images and other types of DCS
1.0 files in a composite workflow—for
example, Vector DCS
*Photoshop DCS 2.0 in a composite workflow
Formats supported: 8-bit binary, ASCII Hex data format, and the data
format where the decode was first done by an ASCII 85 filter and then
by a JPEG filter, 1-bit Copydot
1-bit images and other types of DCS
2.0 files in a composite workflow—for
example, Vector DCS
*Copydot DCS in a composite page from Renaissance scanner,
EskoScan, Autologic, PCC, LinoColor, DCSMaker, Fuji, Cezanne, or
NewsWay
*Prinergy enables OPI to support DCS 1.0 and 2.0 by intercepting the
DCS set during the OPI merge and substituting the DCS set with a
composite EPS file. Prinergy generates the EPS file by recombining the
color channels from the DCS set into a DeviceN image.
