GMG has made a cooperative agreement with X-Rite Incorporated that allows customers to access the PantoneLIVE ecosystem and colour libraries, through the OpenColor and ColorProof platforms.
The integration of PantoneLIVE with OpenColor and ColorProof allows GMG customers to work globally using the same database and to generate spot colours that meet PantoneLIVE colour standards and brand owners’ specifications quickly.
‘We are excited to offer our ever-growing packaging community the ability to connect our award winning spectral proofing solution to the platform of choice for brand owners and suppliers,’ said Victor Asseiceiro, director of the packaging business unit. ‘One of the most difficult challenges facing a converter today is accurate and reliable communication of colour data between all parties in the supply chain. Pantone is the de facto method of specifying brand colours in many industries and its integration within GMG products gives customers the most complete and accurate platform for colour proofing and management on the market today.’
‘PantoneLIVE gives highly accurate definitions of the spot colours that customers want, and OpenColor and ColorProof represent best-in-class solutions that ensure proof colours are faithful to on-press spot colours,’ said Iain Trevor Pike, market director, Pantone Digital.
