Jetletter PSL Page Builder Variable Data Printing Software
High-speed variable data print and mail automation. An intuitive drag-and-drop design interface on top of the most advanced VDP engine we've used, and the tool behind much of our own work.
Built for speed and automation
PSL Page Builder isn't a plug-in. It doesn't need InDesign to render output, so it doesn't choke on large or graphic-heavy variable jobs.
Multi-PC arrays
Use multiple PCs and as many hyperthreads as you can get your hands on to build the ultimate high-speed system.
Speed systems
Create outputs many times faster than plug-in solutions. We design some of the fastest Jetletter speed systems ever built.
Print automation
Build complete end-to-end, hands-free automation for even the most complex variable data projects.
Our current speed record: one million PDFs output by a Jetletter PSL speed system.
We ran a 76,000-record job that has multiple pages merging, and it finished in about 16 minutes. In contrast, InDesign ran a similar job and took 1 hour and 54 minutes.
Rick GalloJetletter PSL userOver one million records processed hands-free and ready to print in less than three minutes. I can't imagine a more resourceful set of tools, and the ability to turn up the speed is amazing.

Drag and drop without limits
The drag-and-drop interface doesn't cap what you can deliver. Four "bridges to PSL" give operators access to the underlying language without programming. You can write code as fast as you can drag and drop, with no JavaScript required.
PSL programming language
When drag and drop isn't enough, open the underlying language to build custom applications non-programmers can run, automate workflows in a lights-out environment, integrate with other best-of-breed tools and manage data and content automatically.
Merge jobs in minutes, not hours
Merge speeds can exceed 50 times what a plug-in delivers, often more than 20,000 records per minute on a single core. Compare that to FusionPro® or XMPie®.
Multi-core processing
Run PSL Page Builder Pro on as many processors as your systems support. Merge as many as 100,000 complex financial records per minute, and 500,000+ per minute on multi-core speed systems.
Financial and transactional projects
Invoices and statements need data in tables. PSL Page Builder produces tables, charts and graphs from data or calculated values, with varying content, page counts and white space. Charts are built natively, without importing from Excel, and can be color coded with full shading and perspective.
Versatile content controls
Control what content goes on a page, which page to use for a record, typesetting, colors and almost any other element, manually or based on data. The Condition Manager selects pages with compound statements, which is very handy for co-mingled jobs.
Postal-ready output
Native barcodes, including IMb and QR codes, are generated without fonts, so they're never truncated. The Address Box applies USPS formatting requirements to every address automatically, with the IMb in the correct location.
Imposition
N-up layouts, presort-order output, "Dutch cut" layouts, bleeds, gutters, crop marks and optimized cuts are all handled inside PSL Page Builder, not the RIP.
Hot folder automation
PSL Page Builder Pro watches hot folders and runs projects from the command line, so output can be triggered by SQL, PowerShell or your postal software. See .PJB file automation.
