Adobe announce version 2.5 of the PDF Print Engine. Found this report from Wide Format Imaging. There is no hard copy at the moment in the IPEX press area. But there was a presentation at the FujiFilm stand yesterday and some hard copy is expected for today. Later there will be some detail in this blog. But first impression is that the Adobe push on PDF could be stronger.

So far the London College of Communication has not turned up. Not sure why but it may be to do with the new structure. The name changed to leave out the word "print" and now the idea of "print and publishing" has gone into "design" and "media". How will this work? It will be presented somewhere sometime so when this makes sense it will probably help to make sense of IPEX.

Kodak gave away a video camera to the press as part of their links to social media. I tried it out before reading the book so was unaware there was a zoom. Also there is a focus switch for closeups that I somehow turned on. So yesterday may not turn out too well. Today could be better, still some space left.
