| Copy Dot: |
based on ROOM (RIP once, output many), data that has been RIPPED already can be re-used without being recalculated; applies to both the color-accurate screening proof and to the film, plate or digital printing output; using the same data guarantees a consistent results |
| Exact Print Prediction: |
the following can be predicted exactly by use of the ICC color management and ROOM concept: - screen dot shape - screen angle - screen resolution - screen dot size |
| Features: |
- color accurate screen proof using the original screening information based on one-bit files - ICC color management - spot colors - output on drop-on-demand inkjet printing systems - compatible with existing output workflow systems - can process copy dot files - full integration of Best Colorproof XXL functionality (including continuous tone proofing)
|
| ICC Profiles: |
prior to starting the output on the printing system, the separated and screened color data resulting from the RIP process is combined into one composite file; the color management system relies on ICC profiles describing the color rendering of the proofing and the reference printing system to give color-accurate screening proofs |
| Inkjet Technologies: |
take advantage of the drop-on-demand inkjet technology for obtaining color-accurate screen proofs |
| OS Compatibility: |
Windows 2000 (Professional or Server) |
| Recommended System: |
2.4GHz Pentium 4 PC or better 256MB RAM minimum SCSI hard disk 30GB minimum free space on hard disk CD or DVD ROM drive available USB port VGA compatible graphic card 10/100 network interface |
| RIP & Print: |
on-the-fly; starts printing wihile still procession data (when running on an intel Pentium dual processor computer with a speed of 1GHz or higher) |
| Screeing Technologies Supported: |
use any method of screening technology e.g. HQS, IS, RTS, Super Cell; in all cases, the entire screening information is already contained in the one-bit files; the same applies to the resolution of your output device |
| Spot Colors: |
besides the standard CMYK, Best Colorproof supports up to twelve spot colors in the same job; spot colors are defined in a table using CMYK or CIELAB value; the most common spot colors have already been pre-defined, but you can customize the table whenever needed |
| Supported File Formats: |
one-bit formats - TIFF G4 - TIFF G3 - Packbit - Huffman compressed TIFF - LZW compressed TIFF - Uncompressed TIFF - Presstek
-processed file formats for contone proofing separated & composite PostScript, EPS, PDF 1.4, TIFF (RGB, CMYK, LAB), TIFF/IT, JPEG, Delta lists, Scitex CT/LW |
