Automatic spot color conversion


More precise color management!

A spot color is automatically converted to CMYK values by Adobe Illustrator-compliant DIC color collection. The stable color matching is achieved by quantifying the color difference.

  • A spot color is automatically converted by Adobe Illustrator DIC※1 swatch library.
  • The color difference is quantified and represented as ΔE value. Specific value can standardize the level of color difference.
  • Thanks to specific values, there is no need to print out image many times for color matching. Time and cost are considerably saved.

*1: This function is available for PS and EPS formats.
The converted color is the approximate color of DIC color collection guide, is not the same color as an actual color chip.
*2: ΔE value represents the dfference between two colors.
