Hybrid Software’s ColorLogic advances color management suite

Hybrid Software has announced new releases for all three core products in the ColorLogic Complete Color Solutions Suite. ColorAnt 12, CoPrA 12, and ZePrA 14 advance every stage of the color management workflow at once, from measurement data optimization and printer profiling through to automated color conversion. All three also move to a new streamlined package structure designed for different print segments and production environments. This gives the reseller network a complete and consistent portfolio to take to market.

Product Highlights

ColorAnt 12 makes Evaluation Methods customizable. Users can now adjust reporting parameters such as Delta E limits and methods to reflect their own production standards. The result is evaluation tuned to real production conditions rather than generic industry defaults.

CoPrA 12 delivers stronger Multicolor profile quality and precision. For DeviceLink profile creation, a new rendering mode, Paper White / OBA Match, optimizes results through an optimized OBA compensation method when paper white differs significantly between source and target media. A new Highlights Clipping option provides controlled adjustment of tonal values in the highlights, meeting flexographic printing requirements.

For ZePrA 14, the advancement is the updated PDF flattening engine. This feature handles complex flattening jobs more efficiently and reduces PDF processing errors, a critical step in keeping production workflows accurate and current.

“When measurement, profiling, and automation all advance at the same time, and the packaging across the portfolio is simplified to match, the result is a genuinely complete offering for our reseller partners. That coherence is what ColorLogic was built for,” says Victor Asseiceiro, general manager, Color, Hybrid Software.

Portfolio Diversification

Across the portfolio, the lineup has been restructured into two core packages, Process and Multicolor, with ColorAnt adding a standalone Evaluation package and CoPrA adding a Standard package to serve markets that need high-quality printer ICC profiles. All three products also share a new licensing system, which provides greater convenience and flexibility for customers managing their license keys and adds both subscription and perpetual licensing, giving customers more flexible points of entry and commitment.
