Six Additional Contract Proofing Systems Meet all ISO Criteria
Hainburg, Germany (November 29, 2018) – For two days Fogra has been testing six contract proofing systems from CGS in detail. All of these systems have received the Fogra certificate. In this test program, the Research Institute for Media Technologies investigated special combinations of software, printers (inks) and substrates.
Hainburg, Germany (November 06, 2018) – To improve working with spot colors even more, CGS announces the integration of PantoneLIVETM spot color libraries with two ORIS applications. In ORIS Color Tuner // Web and in ORIS Flex Pack // Web, it is now possible to import any Pantone library from PantoneLIVE with just one click, therefore integrating Pantone Matching System (PMS) spot colors easily into the workflow.
The access to the cloud-based PantoneLIVE platform is particularly of interest for brand owners using Pantone-based corporate colors and their partner, who are involved in the production process, because the exact spectral data and color specifications can be communicated safely and reliably. No matter where in the world the involved parties are located – all data is always available at one central location.
Special colors are especially eye-catching, but to work with them requires effort and expense. Extra inventory, higher prices, frequent color changes, and subsequent wash-up and press downtime all add up to reduced flexibility in job processing and significantly impact the whole production workflow.
As a result, the printing press is not used to the best of its potential, and productivity drops. That costs time and money.
With X GAMUT, the fully automatic color management software for extended color printing on digital and conventional presses, spot colors can be accurately reproduced by using a standard fixed 7 or 8 color ink set (CMYK+X). Commonly, orange, green, and violet are added to CMYK.
That means you do not need to mess around with special ink mixes anymore. This considerably streamlines the production process since no press wash-ups, changeover times are necessary, greatly reducing ink inventory and waste. As a result, the software helps to reduce allover costs enormously - for printers and clients alike.
However, X GAMUT is not only ideally suited to reproduce spot and brand colors precisely. The perfect match of software features and intelligent workflow tools in X GAMUT enable printers to leverage the full gamut of the press and ink set so that images are brilliantly printed in all detail – without the need for special inks. This has made X GAMUT an important tool in the photo printing industry, too.

Expanded gamut printing and brilliant images – with software instead of expensive ink
Hainburg, Germany (September 18, 2018) – The latest product from leading color management developer CGS is ORIS X GAMUT, a fully automated software product for expanded gamut printing on conventional and digital presses.
ORIS X GAMUT expands the full color space and multi-color ink set of the press. A specific spot color can be reproduced without the need for a special ink formulation, a feature of definite interest to brand owners and the packaging and label industries. In addition, ORIS X GAMUT increases the color saturation of images, especially important in the production of brilliant pictures for photobooks and complex packaging designs, for example.
Advanced OBA proofing paper offers outstanding benefits
Hainburg, Germany (July 27, 2018) – CGS Publishing Technologies International has updated its ORIS Professional Media portfolio with ORIS PearlPROOF Universal NEW. The advanced OBA proofing paper exhibits strong and outstanding benefits.
The great advantage of ORIS PearlPROOF Universal NEW is that it meets the requirements of Fogra 51 (PSOcoated v3) and, with a paper simulation, also those of FOGRA 39 (ISOcoated v2). It is therefore possible to reproduce ISO standards within very tight tolerances. The new paper is also compatible with the GRACol standard. As a result, fewer paper roll changes are necessary, which leads to an increase in productivity.
