What are you using for color management software? In Colorpilot you can "edit" a process color measurement and it will recalc the profile gamut.

Hey, Does anyone know if there is a program for the i1pro that works similarly to datacatcher for the eXact? I'd like to measure directly into an excel workbook without having to use colorport.

Any suggesitons on where to offload these legacy devices? We don't need the trade in from X-Rite.

Thanks for the reply! I've been at five different plants, and nobody has had an active color management process before I started so I'm excited to tackle this in a new print medium. The biggest issues I currently see are predictability and consistency. Predictability I've narrowed down to no...

I'm pretty young. I was about 6 years into printing when a manager I had gave me one. I think it's becoming a tool lost to time.

New to Digital, background in offset and flexo. I have ESKO Color Pilot and a few HP indigo's we're working with. I was assuming that color would be managed similar to what the normal process is. I have a printer profile, I have a target profile, I build curves to match my printer to the target...

Yes! Thank you. My best googling couldn't get me there.

It is a print pocket reference and small format. It is super common, and I can't remember the name of it. The last one I've seen had a cover that was M/Y/C. It is not the idealliance guide to print production.

Yep. And if you don't have a license key and move fast you can download the color manager as a demo and export the updated colorbooks to load back into illustrator/Photoshop.

I apologize if I wasn't clear from my original post but I agree that this seems like more of a cash grab by Pantone than anything that Adobe would actually want. I've had technicians for two different companies RIPs I use side load pantone color books because they aren't able to put them into...

Pantone has depreciated Pantone color manager in favor of Pantone connect. The download page still exists but the license manager and buy here page have both been removed.

Thank you! I didn't find this in search.

Adobe is removing the built-in pantone colorbooks from creative cloud. Update happens in March. Pantone in anticipation has moved their Pantone connect extension from a free to a paid service, $60/year per user. Pantone has also removed the hexcodes and converter from their website, also only...

I went to lowes with a spectro and measured white tiles, making sure the a and b star readings were as close to 0 as possible, and the L* was around 95. Also made sure they all were under a DE00 of .2. I then read the characterization chart in over that white tile. I do this so my readings are...
