Fujitsu launches software for printing industry to instantly improve image quality

ntttttttttttt

Fujitsu on Thursday announced the immediate availability of FUJITSU Media Solution ColorFit, software for the printing industry that automatically and instantly improves image quality.

Installed as a plug-in for Adobe Photoshop, ColorFit performs advanced feature analysis on images submitted digitally. To meet the high-quality requirements of the printing industry, it determines and instantly corrects color reproduction and gradation expressions in digital image data, taking into account backlighting, low key effects, and skin tones to be balanced against the background.

In recent years, as the printing industry increasingly handles files in diverse digital formats, with smaller lot sizes and compressed turnaround times, there is a need to process digital images more quickly, less labor-intensively, and at a lower cost.

Building on technology developed by Fujitsu Laboratories Ltd that improves color reproduction, Fujitsu has developed ColorFit software that instantly optimizes images and improves their quality. Compared to the normal manual process of adjusting images by considering balance, this instant, automated process can dramatically shorten prepress time. The automated image-correction process can be further improved when combined with Fujitsu’s color-management technology and image-optimization technology.
