The Ghent Workgroup (GWG) announced that Adobe has rejoined the organization, marking a renewed collaboration between one of the print industry’s most influential technology innovators and the leading standards body for PDF workflows. Since inventing the Portable Document Format (PDF) in 1993, Adobe has played a pivotal role in shaping digital printing and publishing. PDF has since become an ISO standard and forms the foundation of all GWG initiatives.
“Print is part of Adobe’s DNA,” said Mike Scrutton, Director of Print Technology and Strategy at Adobe. “From inventing digital printing in the 1980s to driving innovation across creative and production workflows, Adobe has consistently led the way in advancing standards. Rejoining the Ghent Workgroup reflects our commitment to the next generation of innovation, particularly in areas like embellishment and textile printing.”
Dave Zwang, Chair of the Ghent Workgroup, welcomed Adobe’s return, emphasizing its importance to the industry. “The mission of the Ghent Workgroup is to move the printing industry forward through practical, standards-based solutions. Having Adobe back in the group strengthens our efforts to reach and impact the global print community.” Founded in 2002, the GWG continues to develop best practices and specifications based on ISO PDF/X standards, and Adobe’s renewed participation will help shape the next phase of industry-wide workflow innovation.
