Isis Locus announced
Isis Imaging has released Isis Locus, a software solution for creating duotones for print or proofing. Locus can create duotones on a two-color press and generate a fifth image for a five-color press. It also can create a fifth-color overlay for color control, similar to a photo correction filter. The software requires the user to pick a color from a match-color chart, and then generates a duotone, with support for custom color adjustments. It also features an ink opacity slider to enhance the accuracy of proofs.
Isis Locus can export duotones for use on a two-color offset printer, and a fifth color images for five-color offset printers. It also saves RGB images for use on an inkjet or laser printer. The new software requires Mac OS X 10.5 or above and costs $65.
