With Matchprint Virtual technology, you can perform color-accurate monitor proofing on files in Smart Review.
You can review files in Smart Review for color accuracy if:
- Your printer has enabled your customer for color.
- Your printer has assigned a color profile to your files.
- You view the files using an approved Mac computer, Mac OS, and Safari browser, including a qualified color monitor.
- You have calibrated your monitor using Matchprint Virtual, and the calibration has not expired.
- You have a project role that includes the Use Matchprint Virtual user right.
To monitor-proof a file for color accuracy, the file must be stored in a project, and a color-approval task must be associated with the file and assigned to you.
Note: For more information about system requirements, see the Matchprint Virtual Release Notes and Monitor Selection Guide.
