The aim is to eliminate hard copy proofs in the production of Readers Digest in Europe, said Colour Systems joint managing director Dave Brin.
The main print site RR Donnelley in Krakow runs without proofs relying in the integrity of supplied files. The firm is now working to eliminate hard copy proofs at the clients end. Tests of Colour Systems Proof Positive monitor-based soft proofing package based on RealTimeImage with a colour accuracy of less than two delta E begin next month.
The firm has also invested in equipment to enable it to produce proofs that conform to the PPAs proof4press specification.
It has bought two DuPont Cromalin b2s and two Canon ink-jet printers with Oris ColorTuner software, including the Certified Proof module.
The last piece of the jigsaw is proving the proof, said Brin. Oris Certified Proof software will be used to check all proofs produced are within tolerance and a certificate with the details attached to show proofs have been correctly made.
