Web-Based Color Management Server
Reprointelligence RImaster
Fully automated, professional Print Data Preparation
Reprointelligence’s RImaster is an advanced, user-friendly color management server that combines a comprehensive suite of features designed for optimal performance in professional printing environments.
True to its name, RImaster reprocesses upstream PDF files, ensuring they are perfectly aligned with the specific needs of high-quality print production. Supporting an unlimited number of output configurations, RImaster automates the conversion to the desired printing standard or unique printing condition. Fully cloud-based, RImaster can be accessed via an intuitive web UI and/or integrated into prepress workflows through WebDAV protocol. Hosted securely in Germany, RImaster upholds the highest standards of data privacy and security.
At its core, RImaster seamlessly integrates Reprointelligence’s cutting-edge color management, rasterization, image processing, and PDF modification technologies. The result is precision data preparation that maximizes ink savings, while utilizing CMYK color spaces to deliver superior color accuracy compared to alternative solutions. Despite its advanced capabilities, RImaster is exceptionally easy to use, featuring a streamlined web interface so intuitively designed that even those with minimal training can operate it with confidence and reduced risk of error.
RImaster goes beyond standard ICC technology by fully optimizing the CMYK color space, unlocking up to 25% more distinguishable colors. This capability allows RImaster to rival EXG technology in CMYK-only applications, setting a new standard for color processing in the printing industry. This technological breakthrough enhances both image and color processing, significantly enhancing the visual appeal of printed media while ensuring color accuracy and consistency.
Working in tandem with CCAI and RIlink, RI actively generates high-quality color link profiles on the fly without user interaction. This approach unites the strengths of RIcolor, RIlink, and CCAI, delivering significant benefits such as:
- Image-to-Image color management (Many Input formats supported. Conversion to color managed lossless compressed TIFF)
- PDF-to-PDF color management (Advanced Spot Color Management, In-PDF-Images, and smart vector conversion)
- PDF-to-pre-Rendered PDF conversion (Output PDF contains color managed contone CMYK or CMYK+Spot images)
- What-You-See is What-You-Print approach. No surprises caused by PDF-Interpreter engine differences anymore
- Final color management process. Any PDF in, printable PDF out
- Ink reduction of up to 60% while maintaining original color appearance
- Wide-Gamut Softproof Option with optional Support for consumer-grade Displays
- Optimized print-ability, minimizing the impact of ink-film variations
- Prints are less sensitive to ink-density variations
- Prints are less sensitive to process and press calibration deviations
- Reduced dependency on advanced color and process control systems
- Targeted color adjustments, enabled through clearly separated color-area composition without affecting accurate colors in the image
- Reduced use of print powder and curing/drying energy, along with shorter ink drying and waiting times
- Improved post-processing stability, thanks to flat delivery piles and process-crease-free webs
- Reduced substrate static in heatset applications
- Improved color-purity in digital and analog printing applications
- Improved overall performance in sheetfed offset
- Economic benefits across the print and finishing chain, through more efficient and stable production
RImaster produces print-ready images and PDF-files of exceptionally high precision, enabling virtually lossless color re-composition in both CMYK and RGB-to-CMYK conversions. By fully leveraging Reprointelligence’s discrete technologies and enhancing them with the intelligence of CCAI.
