eXTRACAL Color Calibration Brings True Color Reproduction to
Computers Running NeXTSTEP

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, - Goldleaf Publishing, Inc. announced the
release of eXTRACAL, a hardware and software solution that objectively
profiles all devices used in the color reproduction process,
including scanners, monitors, proof printers, imagesetters, and
printing presses. When used in conjunction with eXTRACOLOR,
Goldleaf's color correction and separation software, eXTRACAL gives
the user a truly powerful color calibration solution for the
NeXTSTEP environment.

eXTRACAL contains a software driver for NeXT computers, and a
hardware device that acts as both a digital colorimeter and
densitometer. eXTRACAL hardware can be attached to the monitor with a
suction cup or can be placed in a stand to measure reflective color
levels. eXTRACAL can also be used as a densitometer to measure dot
density on film and paper. This feature will appeal to service
bureaus and print shops who need to calibrate their film processors
and measure dot gain on press. Dot gain measurements can be
integrated into eXTRACOLOR's separation parameter files.

The eXTRACAL hardware is manufactured by Sequel Imaging. Goldleaf is
Sequel Imaging's exclusive OEM/marketing partner for the NeXT and
Atari computer platforms. eXTRACAL software and hardware is sold as a
standalone product. Additionally, the eXTRACAL software module is
bundled with eXTRACOLOR.

The combination of Goldleaf's color correction and separation
software and hardware, along with the new color publishing software
packages (available from other NeXT developers), makes NeXTSTEP an
attractive platform for publishing and color reproduction, both for
service bureaus and in-house production departments.


Use eXTRACAL hardware and software to calibrate all of your color
input and output devices, including scanners, monitors, proof
printers, imagesetters, and printing presses. eXTRACAL contains a
software driver and the System Calibrator hardware that acts as both
a digital colorimeter and densitometer. eXTRACAL can be attached to
the monitor or placed in a stand to measure reflective or
transmissive color levels, or can also be used to measure dot density
on film and paper. Dot gain and color measurements can then be
integrated into eXTRACOLOR's separation parameter files, giving the
user a truly powerful color management solution for the NeXTSTEP
environment.
