Integrated Color Solutions (ICS), the pioneer of accurate monitor proofing technology and the only provider to offer so many flexible, cross-platform, real-time, proofing capabilities; will feature the most advanced proofing technologies in the industry, to date, at drupa 2008. ICS is also showcasing -- with its many partners -- the capabilities of Remote Director on a variety of monitors, as well as its easy integration with existing workflows. Additionally, company vice president of operations, Dan Caldwell, will speak on monitor proofing at a drupa Compass session on June 5.

Highlights of ICS’s drupa exhibit located in Hall 4, Stand F47 include:

New Version Of Remote Director -- ICS is unveiling a substantially more powerful, multifaceted version of award-winning Remote Director that redefines the proofing category. New Remote Director delivers a long list of unprecedented advantages to commercial and package printers, publishers and prepress professionals.

By moving Remote Director’s color computing to processors so powerful they are used for advanced scientific and sophisticated 3D and gaming applications, ICS engineering teams were able to move to a spectrally-based color system (the most complete color dataset) and also add numerous, previously unavailable, functions to the graphic arts workflow.

Remote Director Demonstrations – drupa attendees will have the opportunity to see Remote Director in action at one of the five demonstration workstations (Macintosh & Windows platforms) on monitors from Apple, Enzio, Quato, NEC and Samsung at the ICS stand. Users will be able to see, first-hand, color-accurate remote proofing across both platforms and on diverse monitor displays.

In addition to the new Remote Director version, ICS will feature demonstrations of proofing scenarios for brand owners, agencies, prepress, publishers, catalogs and printers using the company’s Remote Director and ProoFlow solutions. Additionally, ICS is showing approval sign- off via embedded XMP PDF Support. Attendees interested in integrating Remote Director into any workflow will also be able to see examples of how the Remote Director SDK (software development kit) has been integrated into several third party hosting applications at the stand.
