The company has announced its Multicolor Technologies for PDF and PRINT Control and Standardisation which it will demonstrate at drupa 2012. The solutions ensure CMYK, Multicolour as well as Spot Colour Control and Conformance across printing workflows and technologies. The companys X suite of software enables publishers and printers to use its leading technology for packaging and speciality applications, across printing technologies.
For years, print buyers and printers have been looking for solutions to help them predict and stabilize colour reproduction, said Elie Khoury, Alwan’s President. But this can be a daunting process. With print buyers increasingly demanding consistent colours, it is critical for printers to step up their efforts to standardize their printing processes and to demonstrate compliance on a daily basis. Alwan has developed its new solutions to allow printers easily obtain ISO 12647 or G7 certification, but also to extend their color control and standardization to non CMYK printing processes such as multicolor and spot color printing. Khoury also points out that all checks, corrections and process assessments performed on files or on press using Alwan solutions are documented in xml and PDF reports. Those reports delivered by all Alwan solutions conform to ISO 9001 quality management requirements, delivering an unprecedented level of operational security and information traceability.
Alwans Colour Control and Standardisation Solutions
The Alwan suite consists of three independent software modules that can be used either separately or in conjunction with each other to ensure total ISO and G7® compliance throughout production:
– PDF Colour Preflight, Conformance and Ink Reduction: CMYK Optimiser
– Printing Device Calibration and Conformance : PRINT Standardiser
– Proof and Printed Products Assessment: PRINT Verifier
The companys solutions offer the unique ability to check, correct and report on any operation conducted on Colour data, PDF files and Printing devices in a production workflow.
Alwan’s software suite brings an unparalleled level of control as well as a high degree of security made possible by the interconnectivity of the Alwan software suite.
By bringing together these modules, Alwan has again demonstrated its deep color expertise and dedication to bringing the delivery of compliant printed products within easy reach for any printing operation. We are excited to welcome visitors to our stand at DRUPA to see this unique suite in action.
The companys stand at drupa is in Hall 9, stand number D10.
