Proofing System With FOGRA Media Wedge

Claimed to be easier than before to integrate in to printer's workflows, Colorgate's Proofgate Version 5.01 is now also offered with the company's new proof paper, Proofpaper ISOProof 275g.

Colorgate said that Proofgate 5.01 provides certified digital proofing based on ISO standard (ISO 12647-7).

The new ISO 12647-7 proofing standard is now fully supported in Generation 5.x, for example FOGRA wedges updated with control wedge evaluation.

The company said that FOGRA media wedge and proof evaluation are included with Proofgate 5.01.

Proofing with reference values on the basis of the current FOGRA 39 guidelines.

Gray balance and primary colour proof evaluation based on Delta H.

The system's media device synchronisation (MDS) provides consistently calibrated, identical printers at different locations, claimed Colorgate.

Because Proofgate 5.01 is also said to provide ready-to-use MIM combinations, which contain output profiles and Devicelink profiles for all standard transformations of the inkjet printers and suitable proof media.

With MDS, Colorgate said that the individual printing system can be calibrated to these reference values at the click of a mouse.

Even minimal deviations, such as surrounding air, temperature or other system changes, are corrected independently and repeatedly at any time.

Proofgate 5.01 is available from Colorgate's sales partners in plug and play format as the Proof Module, the add-on to the platform-independent centre management of Productionserver and the Photogate Creative Suite.

It is also available in a stand-alone edition, Proofgate small edition, for printers up to 17-inch format, Proofgate medium edition for printers up to 24-inch format and Proofgate large edition for printers up to 24-inch format.

For customers that buy an upgrade to Proofgate 5.01, Colorgate retailers will offer all the Profiler Modules at a reduced price up until the end of December, added the company.
