<P>The basics and strategies are targeted at setting up vendor-independent color management workflows which can easily be realized with leading applications from e.g. Adobe, AGFA, GMG, Heidelberg, Kodak and X-Rite.</P>
<P>The author explains with a unique graphical concept how different standards such as ISO 12647, SWOP, GRACoL, G7, ICC profile format and PDF/X fit together. </P>
<P>He describes the main points for setting up color management and quality control from the print buyer over photography, agency and pre-press to the printer.

<P>"This excellent book, now available in English for the first time, offers an insight and practical advice on all areas of ICC color management. As well as offering details on the application of graphic arts workflows, it provides a background to color theory that even the most experienced in this area will find useful." Paul Sherfield, The Missing Horse Consultancy</P>
Gives the necessary theoretical background to implement and manage the most efficient and bullet proof color management workflows for print production The terminology is oriented on practicing professionals for print production Color management on a new level of automatization
<P>The use of differing input and output equipment (scanners, monitors, printers, etc.) in computer-aided publishing often results in the unsatisfactory reproduction of color originals in print and online media. The theoretical principles of a theory of color, color measurement, and offset printing are indispensable for calibrating the overall course of production. This is the first book presenting the basics and strategies for color management in the print publishing workflow with focus on producing according ISO 12647-2 and other standards. The user learns what to expect from color management according to the ICC-standard and how to avoid the pitfalls. The terminology is oriented on practicing professionals for print production.</P>
