GMG Color Solutions
Wherever a color goes it stays that color
Reliability, quality and consistency are essential whenever you’re using color professionally. From the experts of prepress to those managing successful printing companies. From creative professionals in leading agencies to the decision makers of the world’s top brands. From professionals in the packaging industry to the people who make it happen in large publishing houses. They all trust and need the innovative, award-winning color management GMG solutions for Proofing, Packaging, Production and Creative to streamline, simplify, maximize and stabilize their color output.
Creative Solutions
Creative minds love color. Brand owners love color. GMG’s solutions satisfy both
Proofing for agencies – simple, reliable and economical
To assess layouts in detail, designers – and customers – must have an idea of exactly what’s going to be printed later. If you have in-house proofs with uncompromising color accuracy, the magic can happen.
GMG ColorProof produces those proofs. Just think, no more couriers or last-minute amends. And the idea of your creative department and production team finally being on the same page? Genius.
With remote proofing, GMG ColorProof delivers the process guarantee that so many international production operations need. GMG ColorProof makes sure you’re getting high color quality proofs – everywhere.
From image to proof to press: GMG ColorMaster is the ultimate RGB workflow
GMG ColorMaster converts print data at the last possible moment, from its RGB color space, into the respective targeted color space. No exceptions: with its virtual CMYK color space, GMG ColorMaster works with all color spaces from the classic printing processes.
This way, print results can be simulated before the actual printing process begins: only at the end of the workflow will the data be converted into a single CMYK separation, using GMG DeviceLink profiles.
Proofing Solutions
Twenty years ago we redefined the proofing sector. We still are
Proofing with GMG
Ads take time. And money. And effort. When true professionals are delivering a brilliant concept, they need to depend on a perfect proof.
With GMG ColorProof contone proofs can be produced to the most diverse international industry standards. GMG DotProof is the solution for cost-effective color-accurate halftone proofs based on the original imagesetter data; GMG FlexoProof is geared towards the flexo and packaging markets.
And when GMG proofing solutions are combined with GMG ProofControl, each proof result can be verified as being 100% authentic – which means it’s a proof you can depend on.
Print Proof-profiles for the packaging industry
GMG OpenColor creates consistent, efficient and reliable proof-profiles for the packaging industry
Do you need to change the color sequence in an order? Has the density changed, or the substrate? GMG OpenColor immediately calculates a new profile. Instead of printing again and again, the result of those changed conditions can now be predicted accurately –with minimal expenditure.
GMG OpenColor makes GMG ColorProof a complete printing press simulator – and enables accurate proof simulation of the overprinting effects of spot colors using special multicolor profiles.
High quality results, no compromises
The GMG ProofMedia portfolio is recognized worldwide as being the medium of choice for leading color management experts and industry associations. Our production processes have incredibly stringent quality controls in place – and the GMG label is all you need to be confident it’s an original GMG proof.
Production Solutions
Repeatable colors and uncompromising quality – every time
What do a common large-format banner, an urgent brochure, a motif wallpaper and elegant curtain fabric have in common? Demanding customers – the color must be exact
GMG solutions provide a reliable system that ensures consistent reliability and the highest quality standards. With GMG ColorServer, you’ll achieve highly automated color management workflows, saving time and money for everyone involved. From now on, separation and conversion is no longer associated with an enormous amount of work.
GMG SmartProfiler on board
GMG SmartProfiler is a software-wizard that allows any user to calibrate, recalibrate and profile digital and large format printing systems easily and without advanced knowledge of color management.
Unlike other technologies, the software has useful presets for the different ink types found in large format and digital printing. Sources of errors are minimized because, as a user, you’re guided through the tasks, step-by-step.
Better print results with less ink
GMG InkOptimizer is the unbeatable application for printers wanting to save more than ink. GMG InkOptimizer stabilizes and optimizes the entire print run.
By standardizing the color composition of PDF files and increasing the levels of black ink, GMG InkOptimizer retains the original color and image quality – while reducing its production cost.
This is achieved by working in exactly the area where the human eye reacts most sensitively – the gray balance. These grays are stabilized and the neutral areas and tertiary colors, such as brown and olive shades, are made more consistent. In addition, contrast and shadow detail are improved.
Packaging Solutions
More color, in less time? We can do that. Faster. And more reliably
A solution designed to tackle the specific opportunities and challenges of the packaging sector
Increasingly shorter product cycles, ever more complex color and substrate combinations, growing cost pressure …. to compete successfully, proofing solutions have to be reliable and powerful.
GMG is a leader in the packaging industry and has been for many years, developing GMG FlexoProof to prove that quality and standardization are no longer the reserve of offset printing.
As the world’s only solution to accurate simulation of the overprinting effects of spot colors, GMG OpenColor employs patented technology using special multicolor profiles
The spectral data calculation of GMG OpenColor includes printing technologies, substrates, and printing order. The results are so reliable that correction loops on the machine can be avoided.
With GMG ColorProof, profiles can be calculated ‘on-the-fly’: input files are simply placed in the corresponding hot folder of the proofing solution and subsequently processed automatically.
