ChromaChecker ChromaChecker Corp. • Forest Lake, MN • www.chromachecker.com


ChromaChecker heralds a new category of software that its developer calls a Color Conformance Platform (CCP). As a CCP, ChromaChecker enables printers to quantify and establish their own level of color quality capability, quantify their customers’ color expectations, and knowingly create sellable goods that meet those expectations. ChromaChecker’s architecture was conceptualized and designed in a print manufacturing framework. This framework presents a production line overview, providing numeric and graphical reporting on key variables in the print process. This CCP allows a printer to establish and maintain expected color

58 PRINT17 Dynamic Extended Color Gamut (ECG) Conversion


Soſtware Bundle for Packaging GMG Americas • Hingham, MA • www.gmgcolor.com Hybrid Soſtware Inc. • Langhorne, PA • www.hybridsoſtware.com


GMG Dynamic Extended Color Gamut (ECG) conversion software bundle for packaging allows manufacturers to covert graphics from custom spot colors to ECG with better results and lower cost. While several of the four primary software solutions were available individually, the software bundle provides all of the needed products in one suite, making ECG easier to implement into the workflow. The Hybrid PACKZ separates PDF or Adobe Illustrator©


files into ECG separations in anywhere


from two to ten colors. It converts PDFs into ECG colors while providing other prepress tools needed for ECG color separations. The GMG OpenColor technology uses spectral prediction technology to convert spectral


tolerances on every device, and over time, on any substrate. A printer can even assess G7 conformance and iterate a G7 curve, on the fly, eliminating costly dedicated print runs. ChromaChecker empowers printers to transition from a “break fix” mindset to a “proactive/predictive analysis” methodology. It is cloud-based technology that is affordable, secure, highly scalable, and can integrate with virtually any installed software and hardware. Users realize an ROI by reducing spoilage and makeready time and waste.


ink libraries to create color-accurate proofs and ECG separations in a simplified way. Additionally, GMG OpenColor allows for a centralized profile creation and management. The CMG ColorPlugin adds impressive packaging retouching tools to Adobe Photoshop©


, and


the GMC ColorProof provides proofing technology. Overall, the software package helps printers overcome past ECG complexities and gives them a better way to satisfy packaging customers.
