Visit ARTS PDFFounder and former CEO of Lantana, and now VP of Sales at ARTS PDF (ARTS PDF and Planet PDF are both divisions of BinaryThing), Gary has extensive knowledge of PDF in the graphic arts industry. Lantana was initially an Adobe partner doing hardware development for their OEMS, but early on Gary recognised the emergence of PDF as a viable format for prepress and print production and he switched the company's focus to software. The first product, ARTS PDF Crackerjack, became an industry standard plug-in and is widely used today. Prior to founding Lantana Gary held sales management and executive positions at Xerox, QMS (Konica Minolta Printing Solutions), and RasterOps.
