Apple released a new version of its ColorSync color matching software, available for download both from Apple’s Software Updates Web site and via the Software Update control panel software used by Mac OS 9.
ColorSync is an Apple-developed technology that enables software applications to maintain consistent color matching throughout the entire workflow process, from input to editing to output. Utilized by many leading imaging and output applications and increasingly adopted by publishers, pre-press houses, graphic design firms and other companies, ColorSync helps assure Mac user that what they see on the screen is as close as possible to what they’ll see on paper.
