Christchurch, New Zealand, September 7, 2005: Gimlé, developers of AbsoluteProof® digital inkjet proofing software, today announce enhanced support for expanded gamut inkjet proofing designed to meet the needs of Flexo/Packaging markets with AbsoluteProof® PRO and Extrachrome® technologies.
AbsoluteProof® was the first digital inkjet proofing system to offer true support for HiFi color workflows such as Hexachrome via the advanced Intelligent MultiColor Engine® and after extensive field testing with high-end packaging companies worldwide, expands their offering to include support for N-color, Opaltone®, Spotless X®, Esko-Graphics InkWizard, and other non-CYMK color applications.
“HiFi color workflows are now a cost-effective reality for packaging companies wishing to implement digital proofing in their production environments. AbsoluteProof PRO and Extrachrome inks make it possible to quickly and easily proof expanded gamut jobs for a range of multi-color applications,” states Hugo Kristinsson, Gimle’s CEO. “Our Intelligent MultiColor Engine maintains the integrity of the files and achieves the highest quality color and halftone match available in the market today.”
AbsoluteProof technology integrates easily into existing packaging workflows and allows printers to proof difficult color jobs. The cost savings of traditional analog proofs to AbsoluteProofs can be well over 60% in turnaround time, materials, and labor. When you consider that the halftone and remote proofing capabilities are included in the application’s base price of $7,995, the system becomes a feasible investment for most companies.
