DIGITAL PROOFING -- Bouncing a Process Check

ProofMaster Dalmatian from PerfectProof enables proofing of 1-bit files, as well as standard DTP formats. Versions are available to support two-, four- and eight-up workflows on Mac OS X and Windows platforms.

Version 2.0 of ProofMaster Folio, Mezzo and Grande software packages adds the ability to certify that proofs are color accurate according to the ISO 12647-2 standard. A small color control strip is added to the bottom of the proof, which is then measured with a spectrophotometer and the data compared to the press target. The summary report can be printed as a label to be affixed to a proof. The upgrade also features new tools for editing color profiles.
