Veripress


On-press soft proofing system for screened, PDF and postscript CTP RIPs

Veripress is a complete on-press soft proofing system for screened, PDF and postscript CTP RIPs, designed to produce verified, colour-matched proofs on screen, at the touch of a button.

At Serendipity, we understand you need a seamless proofing solution alongside your press. A system that automatically assembles plate files straight from your platesetter RIP, that can work with your publication planning files, and can integrate with your press console.

We know you need unparalleled colour management that utilises the full gamut of your press desk display, and a spot colour merging system that precisely simulates the interaction of press process and spot inks on your substrates.

Fast, cost-efficient, and made for high-volume press and publishing environments, Veripress ensures your pages will be ready to approve on screen, at the press desk, as soon as plates arrive.

Colour-Managed Soft Proofing System

Colour Management

Veripress features an ICC v4.2 compliant colour management system with true 16-bit processing for enhanced colour depth and finer colour control.

  • Proof files containing halftone, stochastic, hybrid, or any other screening type.
  • Real Dot Technology displays your soft proofs with exactly the same dot structure as source platesetter RIP files.
  • Create or import unlimited Lab, CMYK, RGB, or multi-colour spot colour libraries.
  • Lab (Multi) special colour support allows spot inks to be specifically characterised, defining the Lab values of a colour at different tint levels.
  • Advanced RGB and CMYK colour merging and spot colour paint modes precisely simulate your press process and spot inks.

Press RIP & Console Integration

Veripress interprets the native file format, directory structure, assembly and imposition data of your platesetter RIPs.

  • Virtual Press allows you to manage, assign and change job plates.
  • Configure automated RIP polling and customise your proofing workflow.
  • Bookfilter uses your press planning files to automatically assemble publication pages on screen in the correct sequence, broadsheet pairing, and press orientation.
  • Press console integration allows operators to load publication pages for soft proofing directly from the press console.
  • An integrated Job Genie can be programmed to read your filename format and stitch single plates into full colour jobs and publications.

Press Simulation

Veripress uses Press Configurations to precisely simulate the properties of the press and substrate on screen.

  • Define your press operating gamut with CMYK or multicolour match ICC profiles.
  • Press ink and platesetter dotgain compensation normalises plate files for proofing.
  • Reproduce substrate white point, show-through and stretch. Set maximum ink weights.
  • A replacement ink feature handles non-standard press ink setups.
  • Switch press configurations instantly to view jobs as printed by another press.
  • Simulate and highlight drop-off (minimum dot) areas for Flexo Printing.
  • Configurable halftone screening simulation for contone soft proofs.

Touch Control

Veripress has integrated touch screen support. A Touch Console interface allows one-touch access to soft proof viewing, tool and navigation.

  • Assemble publications from single pages, press plans, or by de-imposing them on-the-fly from press sheets.
  • A Page Navigator shows available, missing and duplicate pages.
  • Multi-resolution previews allow real-time zooming of large print areas.
  • Virtual Loupe magnifies areas for quality checks and shows accurate ink coverages.
  • View spreads, signatures, back-page show-through, and individual ink channels.
  • Ink Key Viewer helps the press operator setup press ink ducts and calculate ink use.

Monitor Calibration & Verification

Integrated monitor calibration and verification tools ensure accurate colour reproduction of your entire press gamut on screen.

  • Proof Lock ensures soft proofing only on displays that conform to your colour standards.
  • Truespot colour iteration automatically adjusts and optimises spot colours to precisely match press output on your soft proof display.
  • Veripress automatically adjusts screen gamma, white point and brightness.
  • Calibrate soft proofing displays, light booths and the measure ambient lighting of your press room.
  • Generate colour verification charts from imported CGATS data or directly from press ICC profiles. Measure and verify your colour against Δe, ΔH and ΔCh tolerances.
  • Verify job specific spot colours while soft proofing.
