Introducing Kodak ColorFlow Software
Kodak ColorFlow Software is a new, intelligent solution for integrating the many color elements and devices in a typical print production environment, managing the complex color relationships between them, so that all color control elements—curves, ICC profiles and spot color recipes—are used together correctly.
ColorFlow Software will be available both as a standalone application wherever a color solution is required, as well as integrated within KODAK PRINERGY Workflow System Version 5.0.
Without ColorFlow Software (Independent Color Systems)
• Color changes when normal production variables occur
• Many color control elements (curves, ICC profiles and spot recipes) scattered across devices
• Resources and time required
With ColorFlow Software (Color Relationship Management)
• Kodak ColorFlow Software aligns color across devices
• Unites curve and profile creation and editing in one solution
• Automatic updates when color adjustments are required
• Integrated color control with Kodak Prinergy Workflow System
• Less time and resources required
• Reduced color setup costs
• Reduced training and color production errors
ColorFlow Software – Key Differentiators
• Color relationship management for digital and offset environments
• Integration with workflow simplifies production and increases automation
• Automatic updates when color adjustments are required
• Generation of curves, ICC profiles and spot recipes from a single well-controlled press run
• Gray balance curves using unique algorithms for a balanced color match
- better color faster -
• Ink optimizing for reduced ink costs and improved print quality through greater print stability
• Visual color editing using Kodak Matchprint Virtual Technology allows accurate on screen color when editing profiles and curves
• Comprehensive print condition reporting tools to summarize color and assist in troubleshooting
• International Standards - Kodak fully endorses ISO printing system standardization recommendations, and supports international data exchange formats and job control specifications
• Color is an integral part of the Kodak Unified Workflow Solution and enhances the production of color
