Hello, list-
I'm working with a print buyer to set up a system for monitoring the
quality of proofs they receive from their outside prepress suppliers. We
are considering use of the UGRA/FOGRA Media Wedge. What software is
available to measure and analyze proofs? We'd like each vendor to
maintain a run chart of their proofs, and be able to access measurements
of a particular proof. We'd also like to attach some sort of
verification printout to each proof.
