Dear Chris,
I think it would be a worthwhile thing for you to explore AbsoluteProof as
another option.
Easy to set up and use.
Runs under MAC OSX.
Comes with a built in Rip (Release at Drupa 2004)
Fully ICC compliant.
Five levels of Halftone smoothing. (gives YOU the control of Halftone
reproduction)
Dotgain control, built on actual press behavior.
(Gives dot gain control over individual CMYK, Spotcolor and Hexachrome
channels.)
Licensed Pantone libraries 2004.
Replaces Pantone information from applications and replaces with updated
ones.
(Therefore you get identical Pantone interpretation from any application)
Utilizes the full colorgamut of the proofer for Pantone matching.
Drives Epson, HP and Roland printers.
Drives any Postscript device such as Xerox, Minolta, etc.
Capable of Hexachrome proofing using ICC profiles.
Compatible with most Image- platesetter rips.
Very competitively priced.
And more.
I would like to invite you and anyone interested to visit us at the
innovation park at Drupa Hall FG Stand S11 to see for yourself.
Or visit our website for more information.
