Matching Vinyl Colors

Fri, Jan 4, 2008

Digital color management is sort of like mapping where you are and where you’re going in the color-printing arena. So says Neal McChristy over at Wide-Format Imaging magazine. Check out this excerpt from his article:
“You can’t send some guy in with a spectrophotometer in to make a couple of profiles and have a color-management problem solved,” said Mike Adams, owner of Correct Color, Austin, TX. “A typical project for me is I go in someplace and they have whatever varying degrees of color problems or no color problems and just want to be better. I design their color workflow from beginning to end. I make profiles of all of their machines on all the media that they print in all the resolutions they print in and whatever RIP they have and do all the settings.”
