SIPC 1.1.1
An ICC colour profiler for scanners that uses the Argyll open source ICC compatible colour management system. more>>
SIPC is an ICC colour profiler for digital scanners. ICC colour profiles are currently the best way of ensuring that you are preserving original colours in the digital image. If you want to know more about colour profiles have a look at ICC website. SIPC uses open source ICC compatible colour management system - Argyll.
This is a freeware application to create colour ICC profiles for scanners using popular IT 8.7 (ISO 12641) targets. Kodak, Agfa and others manufacture IT8 targets.
Inexpensive IT8 targets for reflective and transparency work can be purchased from the web.. Every target comes with its own reference text file, used by software to calculate the profile.
SIPC is work in progress and NOT extensively tested. Hopefully, it will change soon but at the moment I advise you to test it thoroughly yourself before using it for any critical work.

iText 5.0.0
iText is created to be a handy and innovative library that allows you to generate PDF files on the fly. more>>
iText 5.0.0 is created to be a handy and innovative library that allows you to generate PDF files on the fly. iText is an ideal library for developers looking to enhance web- and other applications with dynamic PDF document generation and/or manipulation. iText is not an end-user tool. Typically you won't use it on your Desktop as you would use Acrobat or any other PDF application. Rather, you'll build iText into your own applications so that you can automate the PDF creation and manipulation process. For instance in one or more of the following situations:
- Due to time or size, the PDF documents can't be produced manually.
- The content of the document must be calculated or based on user input.
- The content needs to be customized or personalized.
- The PDF content needs to be served in a web environment.
- Documents are to be created in "batch process" mode.
Major Features:
- Serve PDF to a browser
- Generate dynamic documents from XML files or databases
- Use PDF's many interactive features
- Add bookmarks, page numbers, watermarks, etc.
- Split, concatenate, and manipulate PDF pages
- Automate filling out of PDF forms
- Add digital signatures to a PDF file
- And much more...

- PdfContentStreamProcessor: refactoring to allow different text extraction implementations.
- Text extraction: added ability to get content byte from non-stream objects (thanks to Ken Dobson for ideas on how to do this from submitted unit test)

Serendipity Blackmagic 3.2
Serendipity Blackmagic - instantly create contract quality proofs from any RIP on any printer with no changes to your workflow more>>
Serendipity Blackmagic version 3 includes completely new features as well as improvements on old features. The features which created the most excitement at recent trade shows are described below.
The FlipBook application provides a convenient way of viewing publications. Select FlipBooks "View 3D" option and you can literally flip through the publication. The publication can then be exported as PDF or QuickTime movie. The SoftProof application has a virtual loupe which displays the job at 100% wherever it is positioned. Use the MonitorCalibrator and any supported spectrophotometer to calibrate your monitor and create monitor ICC profiles which can be used in Blackmagic for dramatically improved colour accuracy.
Use any double-sided Postscript[tm] or PCL5 compatible printer to create full-colour or black-and-white "dummies" of your books. An intuitive user interface lets you select the jobs you wish to deimpose, assign a deimpostion signature to each and then let Serendipity Blackmagic do the rest for you. No folding and no cutting required.
Especially useful for high-volume production and quick turn-around sites, the new clustering feature will let you use more than one computer to process jobs. A master machine will determine how jobs are distributed across a cluster of networked Serendipity Blackmagic slaves so you never miss your deadlines again.
Real life inks often have characteristics which are difficult to simulate digitally. The new Plate Paint Modes are a step towards more realistic simulation. A plate can be assigned any one of these paint modes:
Overprint, traditional mixing of channels
Knockout, all channels of the top plate dominate those of the plates bellow it
Primer, white ink simulation
Opaque, variable opacity to simulate metallic or other special inks

Scribus 1.3.4 Beta
A useful, free and reliable open source page layout program (DTP) more>> A useful, free and reliable open source page layout program (DTP)
Scribus is a useful, free and reliable open source page layout program (DTP) with the aim of producing conformant commercial grade output in PDF and Postscript., along with extensive support for graphical PDF form and PDF presentations.
While the goals of the program are ease of use and simple easy to understand tools, Scribus offers support for professional publishing features, such as CMYK colors, easy PDF creation and Encapsulated Postscript import/export. Other professional features include full ICC color management, spot colors and creation of color separations.
Scribus is used around the world for newspaper production, book publishing and a wide variety of page layout tasks.
First, Scribus was developed first and foremost on Linux and Unix machines, so sometimes the way things work are not always the windows way, but a more OS neutral way. Scribus also is natively ported to MacOSX and the behavior changes are mostly in the way the menus work. Second, a great deal of time and effort has been put into Scribus to generate very high quality commercial grade PDF. Provided you follow the recommended workflow in the documentation, you should have few issues with commercial printing.

When opening images from digital cameras, Adobe? Photoshop? 7.x reads the ICC color profile and EXIF metadata supplied by the camera to determine which color space it should use to interpret each more>> When opening images from digital cameras, Adobe? Photoshop? 7.x reads the ICC color profile and EXIF metadata supplied by the camera to determine which color space it should use to interpret each image. Certain digital cameras do not embed ICC profiles and always specify the sRGB color space in the EXIF data, even though they allow the photographer to use different spaces. As a result, Photoshop behaves as if each image is tagged with an sRGB ICC profile.
Running the utility called Ignore EXIF Color Space will instruct Photoshop 7.x to ignore the color space specified in EXIF metadata. In this mode, Photoshop 7.x will present a dialog box when opening images and will ask which profile it should assign to each image. Photoshop will continue to ignore the EXIF color space setting in files unless Respect EXIF Color Space is run to restore the normal behavior of Photoshop 7.x.

ColorLab 2.8.13
A free tool for converting and analyzing digital color in ICC-based environments more>> A free tool for converting and analyzing digital color in ICC-based environments
ColorLab was designed for internal testing, debugging and developing and is always a project in work. ColorLab is a useful color picking utility.
ColorLab contains many tools and functions to work with colorimetric and spectral measurement data.
For ProfileMaker owners more functionality is provided and automatically activated when ColorLab detects that a ProfileMaker dongle is attached to your computer. Yet more functions exist but are not available outside of our labs.
ColorLab is working on documents, which can be loaded, modified and saved. A document is a set of colors based on pixels (images) or color patches.
The list of supported image file formats includes JPEG and TIFF and perhaps more. Colorpatches are stored in ASCII text files that are used by ProfileMaker and similar applications to store and exchange color (measurement) data.
