ColorMunki Create

From Yenra

Shipping since September 2, 2008, Pantone ColorMunki Create is a software and hardware solution for creating, managing, searching, verifying and sharing color palettes. An affordable, simple starting point for designers whose primary objective is color palette creation, ColorMunki Create is part of the ColorMunki portfolio.

ColorMunki Create automates color palette creation with a variety of tools for color selection. Colors can be chosen from system-level color pickers, Pantone Color Libraries including the Pantone Matching System and Pantone Goe, keyword searches or color harmonies. ColorMunki can identify and extract colors from images, saving valuable time in the design process. Users of ColorMunki Create have the ability to snap any color from a built-in library to Pantone Colors. Palettes can then be seamlessly imported into popular design applications including Adobe Creative Suite and QuarkXPress, as well as other industry-standard applications. A palette synchronization function will automatically update any changes in palettes to the design applications.

ColorMunki Create also includes a monitor calibrator to ensure colors are viewed accurately onscreen. The PrintSafe feature, a unique verification tool, is a one-click, out-of-gamut preview by paper type that will alert users as to which colors in their palettes are achievable or not on different paper stocks.

Users can preview palettes for CMYK or spot color printing with the Snap To feature, and easily predict how palette colors will reproduce in different print situations. Colors can also be evaluated under varying light sources.
