Remote Proofing is Outtasight

Not all of these attributes can be delivered with monitor or inkjet proofing. For packaging, a common approach is to use remote proofing to finalize content and color and then generate an approval proof at the production site, on the actual substrate that serves as the final contract proof.

Summers—The primary challenge is maintaining the consistency of the system in a remote environment. Can you keep the remote system accurate and repeatable? What tools do you need to measure, track, and fix color? Are they easy to use? GMG offers a very repeatable system, where the administration of color management is done at the supplier's site. What could be easier for the customer? When you use a GMG system, you annotate in hard copy. You find a picture of the proof. Most of the time, you get on the phone with someone. You can also send a PDF file and let the customer mark it up. We suggest that you provide a hard copy to look at, and a PDF file to annotate.
