PIA Adds New Color Accurate Soft Proofing Course to iLearning Center
Aug 2, 2018

Pittsburgh, PA--Printing Industries of America recently launched a new Color Accurate Soft Proofing course to the iLearning Center this week. Presented by Joe Marin, Vice President of Education and Training, the course is available to Printing Industries of America printer members as a free benefit of membership.

Soft proofing is an essential function in a print shop because more creative and color-critical decisions are made on an LCD display than on any other device or media. Yet, most print professionals are not managing their displays properly to ensure that what they are seeing on displays is as close as possible to what the final printed product will look like.

Color Accurate Soft Proofing aims to give the student the vital information to calibrate and profile displays for color-accurate soft proofing.

Students will learn:

  • What is soft proofing?
  • Requirements for success
  • Hardware and software requirements
  • The 5 steps to a color accurate display
  • How to use Adobe CC applications to view color accurately
  • The ideal soft proofing viewing environment
