Convert colors without a precalculated separation rule
What if no precalculated separation rule exists, or spot color requirements in flexo printing change to meet customer demands? Until now, this meant switching to OpenColor to adjust your project and calculate a new rule — a time-consuming process. Now you can handle these cases directly in ColorPlugin: A new tab in the conversion dialog lets you manually select up to seven target inks from your output project and create a separation rule on the fly. Once created, you can fine-tune the separation details just like with precalculated rules, ensuring precision, efficiency, and flexibility even in the most demanding workflows. Learn more at Convert colors without a precalculated separation rule.
Find and map spot color matches easily
The new Spot Color Finder in GMG ColorPlugin allows you to quickly identify the best spot color matches for CMYK objects, while also supporting spot-to-spot replacements when needed, ensuring consistent and accurate print results. You can refine the search settings, preview separation results live, and convert the object immediately, which makes spot color management faster and more reliable, while reducing manual effort and streamlining your workflow. Learn more under Spot Color Finder: find and apply matches efficiently.
Replace assigned ICC profiles with profiles from GMG OpenColor
If the selected output project contains CMYK, you can now replace the ICC profile assigned to a document in the conversion dialog’s "Advanced Settings" by enabling the corresponding checkbox. The new ICC profile will automatically be provided by GMG OpenColor, ensuring consistent and accurate color management across different substrates and printing conditions while reducing manual adjustments.
