New in version 3.0.0.4485 - November 28, 2023
Resolved issues
This version provides higher stability and fixes several bugs. We recommend you to always install the latest GMG OpenColor version to benefit from all improvements.
The most important bugfixes:
- Unresponsive system on upgrade notification
When a new main version was available, the update notifier couldn't be shown on systems lacking the necessary OpenGL 'WebView' component. Instead, a dialog with an error message was displayed, rendering GMG OpenColor unresponsive. The only workaround was to restart GMG OpenColor, providing a temporary solution until the next upgrade notification would occur.
Error message: "Failed to initialize graphics backend for OpenGL."

Create custom calibrations and profiles for the Roland TrueVIS MG series
GMG OpenColor supports the new printer models Roland TrueVIS MG-300 and Roland TrueVIS MG-640. In combination with GMG ColorProof 5.14.0.422 and later, you can create custom calibration sets and corresponding output conditions for GMG OpenColor to print color accurate and reproducible prototype proofs for a wide range of substrates.

The most important bugfixes:
- Saved changes despite Cancel
Changes to the print order, characterization, or spot color database were saved even though they had been canceled with Cancel.
- Maximum number of inks exceeded
In cases with exactly 15 inks, it was incorrectly indicated that the maximum number of colors of 15 had been exceeded.
Error message: "Maximum number of 15 inks exceeded."
- No warning message for Add Spot Color As L*a*b
No warning message was displayed if the LAB values entered via Add spot color as L*a*b' could not be added as spectral values.
New in version 3.0.0.3158 - May 4, 2023
Resolved issues
This version provides higher stability and fixes several bugs. We recommend you to always install the latest GMG OpenColor version to benefit from all improvements.
The most important bugfixes:
- Unsaved color correction settings
Switching from absolute to relative mode, selecting custom media, and other color corrections were not saved or not displayed in the user interface.
- Exceeded delta E tolerance for separation rules
Out-of-gamut colors exceeded the delta E tolerance limit defined for separation rules.
- Failing multicolor profile calculation
The calculation of multicolor profiles with more than 4 inks failed with an error message.
Error message: "Wrong or missing parameters."
- Recurring backups at program start
Performing a manual backup resulted in an automatic backup being created every time the application was started.
- Ignored size limit for dynamic MXN profiles
The maximum profile size setting was ignored during dynamic profiling with Latest MXN Profiling.
New in version 3.0.0 - February 14, 2023
Create high-resolution MXN profiles with smaller file size
Higher, faster, smaller: your MXN profiles now take up to 90% less storage space than before — with higher quality at the same time. The multicolor profiles are also created up to 15 times faster, which benefits dynamically connected GMG ColorProof systems as well.
Import MX4 profiles and convert them into spectral data
Manage and use all your colors in one common database — including process colors from your MX4 and ICC profiles: with the new Lab-to-Spectral conversion technology, you can convert Lab-based characterization data into spectral values and thus also use and combine them for other projects as you like.
Type not measure: add spot colors as Lab values
You can now add new spot colors to your database faster by directly entering their Lab value. Just open the corresponding gradation and click on Add Spot Color as L*a*b* under Tools & Actions Finish on the right. With the also new Lab-to-Spectral conversion technology, the values will then be automatically converted into spectral data and all associated projects and symbols will be updated.
Remove old profiles from the database with a few clicks
Why wait any longer for spring cleaning? Tidy up your HDD and SSD immediately with the new database cleanup feature and remove obsolete dynamic proof profiles and preview profiles at the touch of a button.
Export and share spot colors as CxF
One color reference. One source. For all stakeholders. — Now you can export spot colors from your database as a CxF file to share both solids and color gradations reliably with all partners in the process chain. Not only does this make communication easier and more efficient, it also makes it less error-prone. If you have a valid Subscription, you can order the Spot Color CxF Export option from your GMG sales channel partner for a fee.
Upgrade the database with 229 new PANTONE® colors
GMG OpenColor 3.0 supports the latest PANTONE® Formula Guide Solid Coated & Uncoated V5. This gives you a total of 2390 colors for your profiling, including 224 brand new Pantone Matching System (PMS) colors and 5 new eco-friendly Pantone base mixing inks.
Manage licenses with the new Application Service
AppService V1 or V2? This question will not bother you anymore, now the motto is: one for all — all with one! The new Application Service manages all GMG licenses together and keeps their status up-to-date via the GMG Cloud. It also recognizes new licenses automatically and transfers them to your system in the background. In the revamped user interface, you can view a complete license overview at any time and also create a log file for troubleshooting in case of problems.
