So, you’ve just purchased that new iMac, iPhone, iPad or any other brand or type of digital device. You’ve just opened the box, and then you saw the legal stuff — the obligations and exonerations the manufacturer agrees to. Unfortunately, if you’re not in any way related to an eagle, you’ll find it hard to read the small font type many of these leaflets are printed with.

Through the licensing agreement with X-Rite, HP’s support and engineering teams will be equipped with i1Profiler software and i1Pro spectrophotometers to create standard ICC profiles to embed into all HP Scitex printers and to additionally provide their customers with custom ICC profiles needed for their specific wide-format color-critical production environments.

X-Rite released its i1Publish range of colour management products as an upgrade to all of its previous software solutions, such as MonacoProfiler and ProfileMaker. The new system is a break with the past, though, and after having tested the software I cannot but conclude it’s not always a successful break at that.

Designers often use Illustrator to create brochures and other n-colour printable media. It is useful and efficiency boosting to see how a design will perform on its output medium, and have the ability to control things like Total Area Coverage (TAC) and separations.

Review: Disc Cover 3

Burning CD, DVD and Blu-Ray discs may soon become a thing of the past, if we are to believe some industry pundits. However, for the time being people still like to get something tangible when they shell out money. They also like to ‘own’ something, without the supplier telling them rightfully or wrongly what they can do with it. And for many people there’s also the drive to collect. What better way to label disc masters and other disc media than with Disc Cover 3?

ZebraDesigner Label design software
July 16, 2010 By Leave a Comment
With the Zebra GX430t label printer comes ZebraDesigner, a label design application that runs on Windows XP and Windows 7. Currently, Zebra doesn’t support Mac OS X. The ZebraDesigner software is quite complete, with the exception of support for delimited field files and databases — if you need this functionality, you’ll have to buy ZebraDesigner Pro, a label design software that can also manage RFID tag label printing.
