ProofMaster Plus
ProofMaster Plus allows more flexibility and wider range of modules than Certfiy.
ProofMaster Plus consists of different modules: the Calibrator, the Editor and the RIP, allowing the separation of calibration and profiling from job preparation and actual proofing. You can easily add functionality such as 1-Bit proofing, profile creation through the different available options or printing to multiple printers.
ProofMaster provides effortless setup and allows for out-of the box contract proofs in line with the ISO 12647 and other industry colour standards. Regardless of whether you’re preparing files for offset, gravure, newspaper, flexo- or screen-printing, ProofMaster’s Multi Channel colour engine provides an easy path to spot-on results. It is suited to specialty printing technologies such as packaging, consistently generating superb, colour-accurate proofs and ensuring those results carry through to production and final output.
