SEEING A FUTURE IN SCANNERS

Global Graphics' scanxact™ II software has the ability to open and process third party RGB TIFF images; to import ICC input, output, and monitor profiles; and to interactively view and edit images with the profiles applied.

Heidelberg's NewColor 7000 Professional software, used with its Primescan drum scanners and Nexscan flatbed scanners, now provides integrated ICC profiles and profile editing tools—Scanopen, Viewopen, and Printopen—to ensure consistency in scanning, viewing, and printing. "Package printers are looking for quality over productivity," Rogers sums up. "That is, how long does it take to make a good scan through the process that looks right on press?"
