Hallo und wie geht es dir? It’s time for DRUPA!!!
The print show of print shows will take place in Dusseldorf, Germany this month. It starts this Thursday and it will go on until May 16th. From manufacturers to vendors, from software developers to press manufacturers, everyone who is involved with print will be there. DRUPA is where the print world comes to do business. We have created a DRUPA roadmap for you. Where we tell you about the company, some rumors we have heard and where you can find them at the show. If you’re going to DRUPA, let me know and I will personally show you to our partner’s booth’s.
Also in this issue, our own Dan Gillespie, Director of Technical Services at The Color Management Group, talks about tFlow and Measure Color. Plus I write about my experiences with G7 and FM screens. Thank you for reading and remember that there’s a lot more content about what we’re up to on our blog so bookmark it and stay tuned.
Auf Wiedersehen for now,
Alvaro Rodriguez
Director of Global Expansion, CMG

G7 curves, GRACoL ICC profile and FM screens
The other day a customer approached us with a very interesting question: "Can the GRACoL2006 profile be used to print with FM screens?" What about existing G7 curves? The short answer is NO. The long answer is yes, but it requires some work. Read More
About Color Management Group
The Color Management Group was founded in 2003 as a "think tank" consortium of consultant-based resellers who share technical information & knowledge.
Since its inception, The Color Management Group has generated some impressive stats. For example, over 37% of all G7 calibrations done in the US have been performed by CMG members. And more impressive still: if you add the combined experience off all its members you are looking at over a millennia of knowledge. That's a lot of expertise in just one group.
