Abstract

A server includes an import module that receives a first content file and a first instruction file from a design network. The first instruction file includes a first set of parameters. A job request module, based on the first instruction parameter set, determines a second parameter set and generates a second instruction file comprising the second parameter set. The job request module transmits the first content file and the second parameter set to a signature server. An export module receives a signature file from the signature server. The signature server generates the signature file based on the second instruction file. The export module integrates the signature into the first content file to generate a second content file and downloads the second content file to at least one of a service server, a manufacturing server, and a supplier network.
