Color Me Successful

Hire A Consultant

Sandy Alexander's first step was to hire a color consultant to help it work through its color management issues. The company now uses GretagMacbeth's SpectroScan, ProfileMaker 4.0 and ProfileCity ICC Display.

Though MVP's Graves seconds the idea of hiring a consultant, this isn't a prerequisite for success, according to Blayne Jensen, prepress supervisor and systems manager at Lorraine Press, in Salt Lake City. Jensen took on the challenge of becoming his own color expert. Lorraine Press uses Agfa's ColorTune 4.0 and X-Rite's Spectrofiler software.
