Fiery, the print industry’s leading innovator of digital front ends (DFEs) and workflow software, won three prestigious 2025 Pinnacle Awards for products in the RIP, variable data software, and prepress workflow categories. This is a clear recognition of the company’s outstanding leadership in digital print technology, representing the fifth consecutive year Fiery has won multiple Pinnacle Awards and the third consecutive year a Fiery product has won in the RIP software category.
Three flagship Fiery products won 2025 Pinnacle Awards — Fiery XF 9, Fiery FreeForm Create 2 and Fiery JobFlow Pro.
The Fiery XF 9 is a high-performance software RIP, colour management, and workflow solution built to optimise every stage of large-format print production. Version 9 adds support for free, easy VDP with Fiery FreeForm Create, integration with Fiery ColorGuard for streamlined colour control and verification, and innovative features like AI-powered print bleed — all aimed at delivering more creative, high-quality output with greater efficiency. This is the third consecutive Fiery RIP product to win a Pinnacle Award.
Now supporting large-format printing, Fiery FreeForm Create 2.0 will bring powerful, free VDP tools to every corner of your print room — from Fiery Driven cutsheet and high-speed inkjet to large-format presses. Users can quickly add variable text, images, and barcodes to any job with just a few clicks.
The Fiery JobFlow Pro is a brand-new AI-native workflow automation platform that redefines print production efficiency. Purpose-built around large language models (LLMs), it goes beyond static rule-based workflows by using real-time, intelligent decision-making to automate a wide range of job preparation and production tasks, without requiring advanced scripting. Engineered for speed, ease of use, and scalability, Fiery JobFlow Pro helps you work smarter and stay ahead in a rapidly evolving digital print market.
All three products will be available beginning in October of 2025.
