Users of CREO Color Servers from Kodak’s Print-On-Demand Solutions Group can now automatically match a more extensive spot color collection for CMYK output produced with digital presses.
The expanded matching capability helps printers enrich their variety of spot color production. Pantone licensed CREO Color Servers for the PANTONE Geo System.
With the support of the Goe System, print service providers can save time and money associated with incorrect spot color output. Using an automated procedure, CREO Color Servers can read a spot color and immediately translate it to CMYK to match the color quality.
The 2,058 new colors in the Goe System are arranged in an intuitive, chromatic order for easy, precise, cross-media color selection and specification.
The system is designed to inspire creativity and fulfill the requirements of a fast-changing, technologically advancing industry and includes modern tools and interactive software to drive collaboration and improve versatility in an increasingly global, multimedia environment.
“The addition of the PANTONE Goe Library to CREO Color Servers helps assure printers of the fidelity of the color set produced by the digital output device,” said Ilana Jucha, General Manager, CREO Branded Products.
“By offering this capability, print service providers can produce even more demanding types of color critical jobs, which can help increase customer satisfaction and generate more projects.”
“The inclusion of PANTONE Goe Colors in CREO Color Servers further supports the Goe System as the future of spot color printing,” said Andy Hatkoff, Vice President of OEM and technology licensing for Pantone.
“CREO Color Servers provide an essential workflow tool to make the use of Goe Colors straightforward, and ensure the highest possible degree of color fidelity for Goe Colors by digital color output devices.”
Developed for production environments, the CREO Color Server Technology offers automated color management tools to adjust for achievement of brand critical color match. CREO Color Servers enable seamless integration with any workflow or press, ease of use and flexibility through an intuitive graphical user interface, and maximum utilization of press capacity.
The powerful color management technology enables print service providers to streamline their working procedures and helps ensure image quality in order to adopt digital printing in their offset environment.
