Software to Simplify G7 Calibration of Proofing and Plate-Making Systems

*       Generate dot %-based correction values for most popular RIPs

*       Compare your press or proofing system  to GRACoLâ 7 and SWOPâ

*       Qualify individual proofs as often as you like

*       First of a suite of IDEALink tools designed to help you implement print standards in your everyday operation

IDEALink™ Curve is your link to simple G7™ implementation.  Easily calibrate and verify all your systems without the tedium and uncertainty of manual curve drawing.

Designed by Don Hutcheson and powered by CHROMiX, IDEALink Curve is your link to implementing G7™ by automating the manual tasks:

Gather Data

·         Input P2P target readings from your measurement software

·         Automatically average data from multiple targets

Compare

·         See a real-time comparison of your measured curves to GRACoL 7 or SWOP specifications;

§         3-Tone Gray NPDC

§         Black NPDC

§         Gray balance

·        

Compare systems before and after G7 calibration


Compare your system  (red) to the ideal G7 curve (green)

 


Quickly check ink hue and chroma

 

Analyze Color

In addition to a visual comparison of NPDC curves, IDEAlink Curve provides graphical analysis of:

·         Gray Balance

·         TVI/Dot Gain

·         Ink Hue / Chroma Vs. ISO 12647-2 (commercial) or SWOP TR001 (publication)

 


Compare TVI (dot gain) curves

Create Curves

·         Automatically calculate RIP curve corrections as:

§         Absolute Tone Values (Aim%)

§         Delta Tone Values (∆%)

·         Use standard entry points for most popular RIPs

·         Add or subtract entry points for custom RIPs

·         Include or exclude gray balance corrections

·         Set target gray value manually or from paper white
