-Manual import of spot color rules in the Configuration/Spot Colors table no longer requires measurement values and is now also possible if only device values are available in the file to be imported (Named Color ICC profile, CGATS file or ZePrA’s own CCF format). This allows adjustments of the device values for spot colors without the need to provide measurement data (no target Lab or spectral values required). (Ticket #180624)
Note: Via Import beside the ZePrA CCF format either a Named Color ICC profile or a text (CGATS) file can be loaded in the Spot Colors tab of Configuration. The Information section of the table will show the name of the imported file.
-Now the Automatic Import feature supports Named Color ICC profiles and loads them as Spot Color Libraries, too.
-When saving the spot color report the default file name now includes the data source and the configuration name rather than only the generic name SpotColorReport.
-Another great new feature in ZePrA 6.1 is the ability to save the adjusted Lab values based on the target profile of the configuration either as a CGATS or CxF file from the Spot Color Report feature. This allows creation of a custom EG process library for the configuration and library specified in the report, just as Pantone publishes a Pantone EG process library (and swatch set) for a fixed print condition. (Ticket #170077)
Note: The CGATS or CXF file contains the spot color names and the values from the Lab (Profile) column. If multiple configurations are selected, the CGATS file contains multiple data sets, one for each configuration and the CxF option is not available.
-Update of the CrossXColor profiling engine. ZePrA 6.1 now uses the same engine as the recently released CoPrA 5. This allows application of the new features introduced in CoPrA 5 such as improved ink savings, new gray balance modifications, used channel functions and additional Multicolor features – see details on our CoPrA 5 online help webpage. In addition ZePrA 6.1 recognizes the new CoPrA 5 version – when installed on the same computer – and will share presets with CoPrA 5. Older CoPrA versions can then no longer share presets with ZePrA.
-Support of basICColor Devil Demo-Profiles with Demo and NFR licenses.
