Scitex Response 250 – For Cartography Market

Scitex Response 250 
R250_280System with raster data scanning, editing, and plotting capability. Was used by all the big national mapping institutes worldwide, Just to mention the big USA ones: AAA, National Geographic, USGS, CIA…

The Scitex system components include a scanner, a color design console, and a laser plotter, each with a HP 21MX E  host processor.

The scanner and design console are used for data capture. The scanner is a drum-type raster scanner capable of digitizing sheets up to 36 inches by 36 inches in size at resolutions between 4 and 47 points per millimeter (.25 and .02 millimeters) at a speed of 130 revolutions per minute. The design console, used to interactively edit the raster data, is composed of a color CRT, a digitizing tablet with pen cursor, and a function keyboard. The design console also carries an extensive set of system batch-edit commands. While the Scitex has solved the problem of time and cost- efficient contour data collection.

Response 200 textile fabric design imaging system 1st in Europe

This Response 200 textile fabric design imaging system was the 3rd to be installed in the world (1975) and the 1st in Europe. The customer was Sublistatic, a French heat transfer paper printing company. The R200 was upgraded to R220 in 1980 and was re-installed along the very first ELP plotter. It was operated until 1990, then sold to a Belgian company

Scitex HandShake Formats… Back in April 1988 – Spec written by Howard White

Type: Bitmap
Extension: CT, LW, BM, PG, and TX
Version: April 1988
Compression: None and RLE
Color Depth: 1-bit to 128-bit
Maintainer: Scitex Corporation
Specification: Howard White

The most well-known of the HandShake formats is Scitex CT (continuous tone). This format may store from 1 to 16 8-bit color separations (color planes). Typical CT files store four separation of CMYB image data. Adobe Photoshop is an application that is commonly used to create Scitex CT image files. The other HandShake formats include LW (linework, 16 color separations, 255 color maximum), BM (bitmap, 1-bit RLE image data), PG (page layout), and TX (textual typesetter data). Of these formats, PG and BM have not been fully implemented by Scitex and may not be in general use elsewhere.

The Scitex HandShake data formats and data exchage protocols are described in the following document:
