PersonalEffect®
Print XE
With shrinking margins and greater competition,
Web-to-print and variable data solutions have
helped service providers successfully ride through
challenging business environments.
Variable Documents and Efficient Web-to-Print
With a Profitable, Cost-Effective Solution
XMPie PersonalEffect® Print XE (XLIM® Edition) is ideal for the print service
provider seeking a single, efficient, and cost-effective solution to provide
Web-to-print storefronts, marketing portals, in-house variable data print
production, and ultra high-speed XLIM document composition.
uStore®, the integrated Web-to-print component, allows store customers
to easily order personalized documents from a store catalog, or upload
and work with their own documents. With the uStore document
submission capability, store visitors can upload different types of static
documents: PDF, Microsoft® Word, or PowerPoint files. Customers can also
intermix both variable and static formats within the same document,
supporting multiple documents per job. Such documents can be
combined with those that are available in the portal’s catalog, enabling a
rich set of applications from flyers to booklets and more. Adding
personalized covers, variable data tabs, and other enhancers allows for
unprecedented versatility and added value in fulfilling the production of
customer documents.

⅛ oz nutmeg , ground
⅛ oz baking powder
1 lb all-purpose flour
½ lb almonds
Ingredients:
Directions:
Soften the butter at room temperature for at least 45 minutes. Beat the butter and the
granulated sugar in a bowl until creamy.
Add eggs and keep beating.
Mix the flour with the baking powder. Stir in nutmeg and vanilla sugar.
Add almonds and mix until smooth.
Fill a pastry bag with the mixture and make lines of dough (like little baguettes) on a
baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in a preheated 400°F oven for 15 - 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool
slightly. With a knife, cut diagonally into 1/2-inch slices. Return to the oven for a few
minutes until crunchy on both sides.
1 ¼ cup all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
½ cup Toasted macadamia nuts
¼ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla essence
¼ cup butter
Pinch of salt
Directions:
In a pan, mix together all the ingredients. Add the toasted macadamia nuts last.
Form the dough into small rounds balls and place them on the glazed baking dish.
Bake in a 370 degree F. preheated oven for about 8-12 minutes.
Tip
Use soft butter:
softened butter makes the
creaming stage much easier for
whipping air into your chocolate
chip cookie ingredients.
