    X-Rite eXact adopts new ISO standard for SCTV

    The eXact SCTV configuration allows commercial and package printers to verify tone value for spot colors.

    12.18.17
    X-Rite Incorporated, and its subsidiary Pantone LLC, have announced that the award-winning eXact family of handheld spectrophotometers now includes a Spot Color Tone Value (SCTV) feature that supports the latest ISO 20654 standard. The eXact SCTV configuration allows commercial and package printers to verify tone value for spot colors that correlate well with visual appearance. With this latest firmware update to the eXact family, printers will be able to more easily verify both spot and process colors that brands specify using the new standard.

    “X-Rite now provides SCTV support across our eXact family, IntelliTrax2 and ColorCert Suite 3.0 process control software, providing customers with the color management and workflow tools required to meet evolving industry standards, better formulate inks and take into account the effect of substrates on color,” says Ray Cheydleur, printing and imaging product portfolio manager, X-Rite. “With X-Rite solutions, customers can feel confident they have the most accurate and consistent color measurement instruments on the market.”

    The software update to eXact enables users to separately configure the tone value formula for spot colors and CMYK. Configurations are available for Tone Value, Tone Value Increase (TVI) or dot gain, TVI Table and Print Characteristics. This makes it easier for printers when measuring both spot colors and the process colors used in extended color gamut printing.

    A new search function in eXact provides faster and easier access to color standards such as Pantone and apply them to a job. Users can now select Pantone or a standard from another color library, by name or number. Additional updates are designed to further improve the user experience.

    “X-Rite has added functionality for SCTV (Spot Colour Tone Value/ISO 20654) that can create equidistant visual appearance of tints aligned with PDF and Adobe and other creation software,” says Steve Smiley of SmileyColor and Associates. “This allows for common appearance curve for spot color printing and alignment across digital print, proofing, flexo, offset and gravure. The X-Rite solution can be set up to always use traditional Murray-Davies for CMYK and SCTV for spot delivery as shown to the user in a single screen. As our industry is printing more spot and extended gamut work, the addition of SCTV will save time, waste and improve communications from design through print.”

    X-Rite will be showcasing the eXact family at The Color Conference, January 13-16 in San Diego and at EFI Connect 2018, January 23- 25 in Las Vegas.

    Current customers can download the eXact update here.
