With the direct connection to COLOR CLOUD, all spot colors can be stored quickly and easily in a central location which is accessible from anywhere in the world. The colors can be organized in libraries and easily exchanged between departments or companies. Access rights for users ensure data security and protection.

X GAMUT includes a new profiling engine that creates high-quality ICC output profiles from CMYK and multi-channel data combined with a superior rendering of spot colors and a perfect conversion of RGB images. In other words: The reproduction of spot colors with an extended fixed ink palette (CMYK+X) is even more precise and RGB images are printed brilliantly in all detail.

The spot color correction dialog has been redesigned and optimized, too. Therefore, the usability was simplified and spot colors can be directly imported from the COLOR CLOUD server to exchange and communicate colors easily.

In addition to the very detailed color reports, now the “Gamut Viewer” tool is available here, allowing to visually check if colors are in or outside the printer's color gamut.

Color matching for file output queues can now also be controlled with device link profiles – in addition to ICC profiles or a CGS ORIS color table. This allows using generally available standard profiles for converting from one color space to another.

Besides that, both color management applications support Photoshop (PSD, PSB) and BigTIFF formats, and new features for spectral data and ink saving are integrated.
