By measuring a simple colour control bar on a proof or press sheet you can be sure you are printing to acceptable tolerances. By comparing your measurements against a known set of values you can remove the subjective guesswork from colour decisions and instead use factual measured data to prove you are printing correctly. The process of quality control in print has become far more important as more companies adopt the standards set by FOGRA. Visit our showroom to see how certifying your proofing system or press can dramatically improve productivity and increase your customers confidence.

The complexity of digital file formats is a major source of inefficiency for designers, repro departments, printers and print buyers. The number of different versions and types of files being used can create havoc for those who simply want their job printed! With our range of tools you can automatically ‘clean’ your files to create trouble free PDF’s and files originally created for one type of press or printing condition can be automatically converted to suit another. With less manual intervention you can ensure fewer output errors and an increase in operating efficiency.

By automating many pre-press tasks such as pre-flight, trapping, imposition, colour management, file conversion, FTP transfers and the driving of multiple output devices, a workflow can keep your digital files flowing to their destinations. Workflows can convert customer supplied files into print-ready output without the need for manual intervention thereby saving costs and greatly reducing output errors and related billing disputes. Ask our technical sales team about our no-obligation survey of your pre-press environment for advise on how a workflow could revolutionise your productivity.
