Create image from Photoshop template (non-package)

A DPKG file is the recommended method for incorporating uImage Photoshop templates into your campaign. A DPKG upload operation automatically uploads all components required to achieve the uImage effect and stores them in the appropriate locations (on the uProduce Server and on all uImage Processing Units). The packed components always include the uImage template and fonts, as well as assets, actions and scripts.

PostScript Type 1 fonts

Following Adobe's announcement of disabling support for PostScript Type 1 fonts in January 2023, XMPie's support for these fonts will end on the same date. See Adobe's Type 1 fonts end of support announcement.

VBScript

Starting with version 9.0, VBScript is no longer supported in the plan.

If you have campaigns with a plan which uses VBScript, you will need to convert them to JavaScript prior to upgrading.
