Advanced color management. EFI Colorproof XF manages color based on universally accepted ICC profiles, enabling users to build in color-controlled proofing throughout the prepress and printing process. Expanded workflow. Compliance with the latest JDF data exchange format opens EFI Colorproof XF to the widest range of workflows ? maximizing efficiency through a two-way digital information exchange. Seamless cross-platform integration. EFI Colorproof XF delivers the ultimate flexibility by enabling the use of Macintosh? workstations with Windows-based servers. Flexibility for different applications and tasks. Users can produce convincing proofs for large-format printers that perfectly simulate the final print run for cost-effective posters, banners and brilliant, vivid photos. Output Option HighlightsMix n? match output options. Printer Options M, XL* and XXL* offer three output options depending on the printer size, making the output options unlimited. Extended proofing capabilities to Fiery. EFI Colorproof XF?s Fiery Option* allows graphic professionals to harness the power, performance and speed of Fiery technology in the proofing process. This feature enables users to print their proofing jobs directly from Fiery-driven devices and to build multi-purpose printer pools to do contract, content and concept proofing and digital print production. Ability to export color-managed files. With the File Export Option*, users can achieve a more flexible workflow and export color-managed TIFF and PDF files. With the Gravure Option*, they create separated grayscale TIFFs for digital engraving of gravure cylinders. Product Option HighlightsAdvanced functionality for specific needs. Spot Color Option* enables users to process and output accurate color proofs of supported formats with spot colors. The Color Manager Option* provides a suite of ICC-based tools for managing color and optimizing the system for the unique characteristics of a well-defined environment, while the Color Verifier Option* assures consistent color quality by measuring and comparing color values. Identical proof and final print output. The OneBit Option* eliminates the screening challenge by reading the same data that drives the final output device ? one-bit files produced by the leading imagesetters and platesetters. With this option, RIPping takes place before proofing, maintaining the exact content of the one-bit file. EFI's Dot Creator Option* tackles the screening challenge from a different angle. The solution reads continuous-tone data and rasterizes it for output on DOD inkjet printers without the need for an imagesetter and platesetter RIP. Expand services with large-format printing. The Production Option transforms large-format printers into fast solutions that produce additional services such as poster or banner production for generating new revenue streams. The option provides cutting-edge production features such as expanded step & repeat for easier and quicker pattern creation, and a tiling function, which enables the processing of print jobs that are larger then the printer width. It also allows users to make real-time color adjustments.
