Software based on the modular principle
Color communication, proofing, color management for production, quality control and certification. All our software solutions can be combined with each other according to the modular principle or integrated into your existing workflow as stand-alone applications.
Truly Open Color Management
Open standards enable the smooth exchange of data and technologies, drive innovation and prevent dependencies on proprietary solutions. That is why we rely 100% on open standards such as CxF and ICC.
In-house development of all software components
All components of our software, in particular the Color Management Module and RIP, are developed and maintained in-house by our experts. This enables us to react to changing market requirements at any time.
CxF is the file format for spectral communication of colors. With the CxF tools, you can measure your own CxF data or extract it from existing measurements. Existing data can be analyzed, edited, certified and shared via the COLOR CLOUD. CxF data is particularly important for brand color communication. Organize and communicate brand colors with all their spectral properties - simply and effectively. This format not only makes it possible to transport all the characteristics of brand and spot colors. CxF data can also be used immediately by all your partners and suppliers, as it is an open standard. CxF data can be used in all our color management solutions to spectrally predict the overprinting behavior of spot colors.
With COLOR TUNER, you can easily create contract proofs in all desired print standards. You don't even need to be a color expert to do this, as the web-based application features intuitive wizard-based user guidance as well as automatic color matching and printer calibration. This enables location-independent and color-accurate print output (remote proofing) anywhere in the world. COLOR TUNER includes innovative features and functions such as sophisticated spot color matching and support for multi-channel profiles. The application was the first proofing software to be certified by Fogra, SWOP, Sicograf, PPA and 3DAP and is now the most widely used proofing software in the world. Thanks to its web-based client-server architecture, the application can be easily integrated into any existing workflow.
FLEX PACK is our software for the production of packaging proofs and packaging samples and is at the heart of our Real Substrate Proof, Print Finishing Proof and Authentic Substrate Proof solutions. FLEX PACK was developed in close cooperation with leading companies in the packaging industry and has been used successfully worldwide for many years. Due to the high demands on brand color communication in the packaging market, FLEX PACK has a packaging-specific spot color management system that natively converts spectral data and reproduces overprinting spot colors with the highest accuracy. Cloud-based color databases such as the CGS ORIS CxF CLOUD or PantoneLIVE® can also be integrated. FLEX PACK is also suitable for halftone proofing and supports halftone data such as the Esko LEN format.
X GAMUT is our fully automated color management software for conventional and digital multicolor printing. Printing with fixed color palettes Extended Color Gamut Printing is becoming increasingly important in analogue printing. With X GAMUT, spot colors can also be reproduced precisely and reliably with an extended fixed color palette (CMYK+X). This eliminates set-up and cleaning times, gives you the greatest possible flexibility in the printing process, allows you to process jobs quickly and reduces your costs. In addition to spot colors, X GAMUT also processes RGB data, helping you to achieve expressive, brilliant images. This has made our software very popular not only for handling brand colors and spot colors, but also for photo printing. It goes without saying that X Gamut has an ink saving module and cross-fleet management can also be implemented excellently.
PRESS MATCHER is our color management software for production printing. It is an excellent software for implementing cross-fleet color management. Get the most out of all your machines with just a few clicks, reproduce colors consistently even with multiple output devices and repeat your print jobs easily, quickly and reliably - today, tomorrow or even after a longer period of time. Even internationally valid industry standards such as ISO, GRACoL or SWOP as well as specially defined in-house standards of your customers will no longer be a problem for you with this tried and tested tool. Our Ink Saving module provides you with an excellent tool for optimizing your production costs. The many available functions also help you to further optimize your production processes and thus save time and money.
CERETIFIED and EVALUATE are our software products for simple and effective quality control for digital and conventional printing systems. CERTIFIED enables you to easily measure and evaluate color wedges on proofs, print sheets or on the monitor. Color wedges for common standards such as SWOP, GRACoL, 3DAP, FOGRA are included. You can add your own individual color wedges, e.g. to check spot colors. CERTIFIED also provides company-wide overviews, detailed reports and trend analyses. Lengthy troubleshooting or discussions about color problems can thus be reliably avoided. EVALUATE provides a central server on which the measurement results of all monitored devices are automatically saved. The data can be accessed and analyzed from anywhere in the world via a web browser.
