Remote Proofing--The Collaborative Proof

The Next Generation
The newest generation of pigment-based digital proofing systems that output proofs with extraordinary color accuracy on actual printing stocks now satisfies the needs of both printers and print buyers, and is helping to drive the growth of remote proofing.

"These new systems empower decision-making at each proofing point within the prepress production cycle," Agger reports. "Using the same language through a common proof, printers and their customers are relying on remote proofing as a tool that permits them to interact and manage color far earlier in the process. With remote proofing enabling color-critical decisions much earlier in the prepress process, it is as though customers are, in effect, sending their best color specialists to help run the presses."
