VPS+ was developed to replace the functionality of the original Kodak Virtual Proofing Software (VPS Classic) , originally created almost more than 25 years ago. The code base for the original VPS, now referred to as " VPS Classic ", has reached the end of its development life, and is not compatible with macOS 10.15 Catalina, 11.0 Big Sur, 12.0 Monterey and above. There will be no more development of VPS Classic, as the coding environment used to create it is no longer available. Prinergy users who require soft proofing on the latest macOS must use VPS+. or above.
In order to provide soft proofing capabilities for the latest mac operating systems, the viewing features of VPS Classic have In VPS+, the functionality of VPS Classic has been merged with the functionality of Kodak TIFF Assembler Plus software . This combination of features provides a comprehensive suite in a new VPS+ code base. In addition to providing a comprehensive set of soft-proofing and quality control tools, as well as VPS+ provides additional flexographic layout tools, and a toolkit of features for the reformatting of one-bit TIFF filesand file reformatting tools.
VPS+ is still under active development and although we continue to work hard to provide all equivalent functionality while there are some functional gaps with VPS Classic, there are still functional gaps. We continue to close these gaps additional features and performance enhancements are added with each new release of VPS+.
Currently, we recommend Kodak currently recommends that VPS+ only be installed on macOS systems that do not which don't support VPS Classic. For legacy macOS and Windows systems, we recommend users continue to use VPS Classic.
