Photogate 7 Pro
Photogate 7 Pro is the high-performance, modular RIP Software for an efficient color management, tailored to particular needs and requirements of demanding photographers, designers and photo service providers - all bitmap file formats and additionally for all most common formats in pre-press as PDF and PostScript 3.
Typical areas of application are: photo and art prints as well as FineArt reproductions in highest quality (16 Bit Rendering).
Regardless of the system environment (Mac, Windows) Photogate 7 Pro guarantees perfectly reproducible results and maximum production reliability at any time using soft-proof preview and unique MIM technology.
Photogate 7 Pro is modularly expandable, e.g. with the Proofgate Module PGM, Quality Assurance Module QAM or Profiler Module PFM.
Photogate 7 Pro offers:
- Advanced job management and efficient color management
- Time savings through automation of recurrent routines
- Container function enables optimal image placement and convenient image nesting for optimal media usage
- Reading and printing of metadata in Exif-format
- Automated grayscale conversion of RGB and CMYK data
- Functions to define cut marks and frame widths for canvas print production
- Automatic scaling to fit pre-defined frame sizes
- Control of Windows printers via the CG printer driver: " Windows Printer"
Photogate 7 Pro connects perfectly with professional inkjet printers of leading vendors like Canon, Epson and HP.

Job Management
Container
Applying the container function (nesting), it is possible to pool several print jobs in the container into one collective job. Afterwards they can be arranged either optimized for cutting or optimized for material savings. ColorGATE container function clearly exceeds classical nesting functions by offering scores of additional functions that increase effectiveness and handling in daily production.

Color Replacement
ColorGATE function for color and spot color replacement with direct measurement device integration enables optimal automatic or manual replacement of any input color or color range (RGB, CMYK, spot) with CMYK and L*a*b* colors.

Media Device Synchronization MDS
Applying ColorGATEs innovative recalibration technology Media Device Synchronization a printer can be reverted to a reference state. In addition, MDS allows fine adjustment of identical printers in the event of system- or environment-related deviations. Beyond that, multiple identical systems can be matched in a way that identical results can be achieved when printing on the same material. Fine adjustment is based on an ICC-profile, for consistent color results at any time.

Linearization Assistant
The main task of the spectral meter based linearization assistant (wizard) is to create printer- and media-specific linearization to ensure reliable and reproducible color reproduction.
