Color-Logic’s Process Metallic Color System empowers designers, provides a brand with shelf impact at a fraction of the cost typically associated with metallic printing, and provides printers and convertors with an accurate color communication system for metallic ink printing. It is inarguably the world’s first color communication system for printing on to foil and reflective substrates, when using white ink and CMYK. Color-Logic is compatible with offset, inkjet, flexography, digital, screen and gravure printing processes. It is ideal for, but not limited to, packaging, pouches, direct mail, POP, signage, post cards, literature, booklets, labels, shrink sleeves, calendars and many more.

Using the Process Metallic Color System, it is possible to create a wealth of special effects. Each effect is pre-built into the palettes and plug-ins available with the Design Suite package. Also provided is a master class tutorial and comprehensive online training video that guide the user through the process of creating a design, using Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. Some of the key components of Process Metallic Color System are:

Process Metallic Color Charts – Color Communication

The Process Metallic Color Charts are the core foundation of the Process Metallic Color System, which provides a color communication system for 250 metallic colors for decorative effect substrates, inks and coatings. Printers and convertors are granted a license to manufacture their own Process Metallic Color Charts, versus trying to match a generic purchased swatch book of metallic colors, which was printed under unknown conditions and more often, with substrates and inks that are not applicable to the printing process of the printer.

Design Suite – Decorative effect software

The Color-Logic Design Suite enables graphic designers to create a virtually unlimited array of metallic colors and decorative effects using color palettes and plug-ins for Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and QuarkXpress. The most affordable system for printing metallic colors and decorative effects, Color-Logic requires only five colors to create 250 metallic colors and decorative effects in a single pass of a 5-color press (or multiple passes on a press with 4 colors or less).

FX-Viewer – Visualization software

The FX-Viewer is on-screen visualization software that enables graphic designers, agencies and printers to visualize the dramatic Color-Logic effects on their monitor before proofing or going to press. The simple and easy-to-learn user interface provides customers with a powerful tool for visualizing the impact Color-Logic can bring to their printing.

Color-Logic software is sold and supported by Monotech India.

In 2024, we are looking at full recovery and growth-led investment in Indian printing

Indian Printer and Publisher founded in 1979 is the oldest B2B trade publication in the multi-platform and multi-channel IPPGroup. It created the category of privately owned B2B print magazines in the country. And by its diversification in packaging, (Packaging South Asia), food processing and packaging (IndiFoodBev) and health and medical supply chain and packaging (HealthTekPak), and its community activities in training, research, and conferences (Ipp Services, Training and Research) the organization continues to create platforms that demonstrate the need for quality information, data, technology insights and events.

India is a large and tough terrain and while its book publishing and commercial printing industry have recovered and are increasingly embracing digital print, the Indian newspaper industry continues to recover its credibility and circulation. The signage industry is also recovering and new technologies and audiences such as digital 3D additive printing, digital textiles, and industrial printing are coming onto our pages. Diversification is a fact of life for our readers and like them, we will also have to adapt with agility to keep up with their business and technical information needs.

India is one of the fastest growing economies in nominal and real terms – in a region poised for the highest change in year to year expenditure in printing equipment and consumables. Our 2024 media kit is ready, and it is the right time to take stock – to emphasize your visibility and relevance to your customers and turn potential markets into conversations.
