Focus on Software Solutions
Opening our focus on all things software is CADlink with an insightful look at the number of software packages on offer for garment and promotional product decorators.
CADlink Enhance colour vibrancy and simplify production workflow
Dye sublimation
The most common issues facing dye sublimation producers are the ability to achieve true colour accuracy and simplified file preparation for printing on a wide variety of materials. Most printers are shipped only with a basic Windows-driver for colour management and users are also forced to use third-party applications not designed specifically for dye sublimation job preparation.
Digital Factory v10 Sublimation Edition is an all-inclusive sublimation software package that provides exceptional colour accuracy and vibrancy across a variety of ink sets, transfer papers and printers. It includes professionally created colour profiles that enable the highest quality print production right out of the box. Also included is a series of simple colour adjustment tools that provide operators a way in which to make colour adjustments quickly and easily as required.
Ideal for shops of all sizes, it has been designed for simplicity without limiting functionality. The software eliminates the need for using other design applications to prepare print jobs by including all commonly used tools such as step and repeat, custom print template creation, image editing tools, colour knock out tools that enhance print quality while saving ink costs and much more.
