Super excited and proud to be calling this my office from September onwards! #Microsoft #London

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

@peterintest Try to enjoy it and have some fun! I find voice/breathing exercises beforehand work well for me too. :)

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

If you're in the Cambridge area, there's still time to visit us! :)

I appreciate that this content health feature is for businesses far bigger than ours with different needs, but suggesting that we shouldn't talk to our colleagues as a valid way to gain/share information feels so wrong.

#EyeC's automated artwork proofreading system, #ProofText, is 50% faster and more stable with #Mako Core. It extracts and renders text, checking for discrepancies in multiple documents, often with many pages and in different languages, in one pass.

Fantastic to hear of EyeC's success with the #MakoSDK in their ProofText software! :) The performance statistics are great to see, and it's always nice to hear positive comments about our customer service too. :)

So frustrating when products have licensing terms which limit the number of (build) machines their SDK can run on. How does my build environment determine how much value I receive from your SDK?

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

Some very nice work here by the Mako SDK team! :) #MakoSDK #print

[Global Graphics Software @Global_Graphics]

David Stevenson, product manager for #Mako, explains vector-based transparency flattening in his latest blog post and includes a short demo of how it's done in #Mako Core SDK:

Wow, nature can be so impressive. Looks like a challenge for the next @BostonDynamics robot! :)

[Wonder of Science @wonderofscience]

Fascinating footage of a kestrel hovering with its head held perfectly still as it hunts for prey.

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

Really excited that my blog post has now gone live on the Universal Print technical blog. It was great fun working with both the team and the product. :) https://t.co/i8xpM1Jf6u

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

Phew, glad that went OK! If you missed it, you can see me coding live at our latest #MakoSDK webinar. Also featuring live automated redaction and printing using Microsoft's #UniversalPrint. Good times! #Azure #Microsoft

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

It was exciting to be a part of this (even if I don't look quite right in a suite!) Thanks to everyone involved. :)

[Julie Spence, Lord Lieutenant Cambridgeshire @Lord_Lt_Cambs]

HRH The Princess Royal heard from @Global_Graphics about their award winning printing software innovation- ScreenPro -which enables top quality printing of numerous high quality products. It was a truly international call as we were joined by colleagues in the USA & Japan.

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

How come it's 2021 and I still can't straighten my ever-so-slightly wobbly lines in Microsoft Word? :) #Word #Microsoft

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

A new Shed blog post from our graduate engineers! This time we hear about how they used the Mako SDK to categorize PDF files using some machine learning magic! Potentially some interesting use cases for fine tuning RIP settings. #MakoSDK #PDF #ML https://t.co/daG8gsULI5

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

Another exciting use of our Mako SDK, this time with
@myqsolution, who are using it in their job management software with PCL5/6, PS and PDF. Awesome! :) https://t.co/aUPJfcCgSu #MakoSDK #printing #printservices

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

Quite a fun project, looking at how we can use #AI, #Azure Cognitive Services and the #MakoSDK to improve accessibility in PDF files. https://t.co/M3P5xJ2PTF

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

Nice, might come in handy when I redecorate too! :)

[DeanTheCoder @deanthecoder]

I'm finding this #Adobe site great for finding material colors for my #glsl shader work. Steel, gold, blood, etc...

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

Turns out the live-coding webinar went pretty well, who would have thought? :) If printing or digital documents are your thing, we've got the webinar on video too. #MakoSDK #PDF #Documents

https://t.co/BCfEbBEhdV

[Andrew Cardy @andrewcardy]

Excited to be coding live during our webinar next week (June 24th) on the Mako SDK (what could possibly go wrong?). If you're into printing or digital document apps, feel free to register! https://t.co/RjmL9qR8zM
