Color Express

When printing colour proofs, large format posters or composites that demand top quality colour reproduction, choosing a PostScript RIP is as important as choosing the colour printer itself. ColorExpress from Compose is the ideal RIP for digital colour printing. Based around the high performance Express RIP, ColorExpress offers interfaces for all popular large format inkjet printers and A3+ laser printers. However, ColorExpress is not just a RIP.

Highlights:

• Enhanced job management for better handling on laser printer
• Advanced job handling: Step-and-Repeat, Tiling & Cropping
• Supports all popular printers
• Accepts a large number of file formats
• Advanced ICC colour management
• Support media savings option
• Support Multi-threaded Processor

DI Proof

DI Proof (Data Integral Proof) is a state-of-the-art ROOM proofing module that gives you the best results for your inkjet and colour laser proofs. DI Proof allows users to control the resolution at which it is operating. It downsamples separated data, which is recombined to produce an ICC colour-managed composite file for output to the proofing device. By selecting higher resolutions for downsampling, you can create proofs which partially reproduces the dot patterns of the original separations making it possible to see actual rosettes on the proof.

Highlights:

• Powerful downsample features, support downsampling to:
  - Direct output from Raster PrintStation
  - Output to Windows printers
• Support for progressive proofing for Windows Printers.
• Two user selectable downsampling modes
  - Higher Quality or Higher Speed
• Convert Pantone Colours to CMYK
• Support Windows ICC Colour Management
• Remove unwanted separation using separation filter
  

Visual Proof

Visual Proof Standard is an entry-level prepress soft-proofing product that allows for easy tracking, viewing and checking of ripped jobs prior to output. It provides a significant improvement in proofing jobs before output. Built on Visual Proof Standard, Visual Proof Professional offers higher color accuracy on prepress soft-proofing that includes a larger tool set and significant additional features. It provides a post-RIP workflow with a number of extremely sophisticated capabilities. The Color Management capabilities in particular, significantly removes or reduces the need for slow and costly hard-copy proofs.

Highlights:

• Support Remote viewing of ripped pages from multiple RIPs across platforms of Mac & PC workstations.
• View pages whilst ripping without stopping output; concurrent viewing of ripping pages with stopping output.
• View pages before outputting by diverting pages from the RIP and checking them prior to output.
• Intelligent grouping of separations into pages, and pages into jobs automatically with least user intervention.
• Accurately displays traps and overprints.

Eagle Dot/Proof

The EagleDot post-RIP proofing solution can accept 1-bit tiff format files. With the RIP option EagleDot can additionally support all functions of EagleProof. EagleDot is geared towards production environments requiring accurate contract proofing such as those found in commercial printers, publishing houses, advertising agencies and service bureaus.
The EagleProof pre-RIP proofing solution can accept PS, PDF, EPS, Tiff, and PRN file formats. EagleProof is the perfect color and content proofing solution for independent designers, advertising / design agencies, publishers and newspapers.

Key Features:

• New Color Calibration Tool with circular fine-tuning makes it easier to achieve lower Delta E values.
• EagleDot: using 1-bit tiff files proofer output simulates the real dot shape more precisely and moiré patterns can be predicted.
• ICC profiles may be created without using 3rd party software.
• PANTONE® color libraries supported allowing easy proofing of spot colors.
• Automatic tiling and ganging.
