EskoArtwork announces a new DeskPack plugin: Channel Mapping

EskoArtwork announces a new DeskPack plugin: Channel Mapping

A new Adobe® Illustrator® plugin is available from the DeskPack family: Channel Mapping. It remaps channels of images into any used ink in the document.
Channel Mapping works on both embedded or placed images, which makes it a unique solution. It solves the issue of swapping between PhotoShop® and Illustrator® to get the colors matching between images and linework. You never have to leave Illustrator® anymore and if you work with placed images, you can remap the channels into any ink in the file while keeping the original link with the image. Any update on the image is detected and applied onto the remapped image in Illustrator®.
Go to Packaging and printing pre-production solutions - EskoArtwork to see the movie and to download a 30-day trial for Mac and PC.

Ink savings and quality with Concentric Screening

Ink savings and quality with Concentric Screening

Not really "new", but worth while reading (I hope)...

Concentric limits the film of ink applied by the printing plate leading to reduced ink usage, more consistent and higher quality print, with brighter colors and smoother imagery.
