Embellishments
Color-Logic Focuses on Embellishments Worldwide
22/04/24 10:26
West Chester, Ohio, USA; April 2024 -To help satisfy the worldwide interest in embellishments and metallic printing, the entire Color-Logic website has been designed to utilize Google Translate, thus enabling licensed Color-Logic printers, dealers, and OEM partners to quickly review how print embellishments are produced, and to formulate their own strategies for successful print embellishment implementation.
Commenting on this new service to markets around the world, Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing Mark Geeves said: "Two reasons why Color-Logic has become the preferred source of metallic printing and embellishments in more than 70 countries worldwide are the continued support of our software in non-English speaking countries, and our extensive use of training videos. The Color-Logic website is very visual and when viewed with website translation, it provides a good foundation to printers, agencies, and graphic designers, clearly demonstrating what is possible with print embellishment. Since Adobe Creative Cloud works the same in any language, the Color-Logic demonstration videos can be used reliably anywhere. Because we show Color-Logic tools creating the effects, the necessary steps to successful print embellishment can be readily interpreted by anyone familiar with Adobe design software. We constantly provide design tips, marketing templates, and demonstration files to our licensees and their key support personnel, making it easier to sell and demonstrate our embellishments."

New Color-Logic Website Feature Compares Printed Designs With and Without Metallic Embellishments
10/05/21 11:06
West Chester, Ohio, USA; May 2021— A new section of the Color-Logic website uses several images and applications to illustrate the results of printing both with and without Color-Logic metallic embellishments. The feature--at https://www.color-logic.com/beforeandafter--shows how an image changes when Color-Logic metallic embellishments are added. These effects may be attained using virtually any popular printing process.
Discussing the new feature, Mark Geeves, Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing, said: "The sample files demonstrate the value of print embellishments created with just one additional color on press. On conventional substrate, Color-Logic works with silver ink or toner and CMYK inks or toners. On metallic substrate, the Color-Logic process requires white ink or toner and CMYK inks or toners. The best way to visualize how Color-Logic affects design is to see the metallic image alongside its CMYK equivalent."
