PictoColor Releases iCorrect® EditLab Pro High Speed Professional
Color Correction and Color Management Software
iCorrect® EditLab Pro combines the highly-acclaimed,
easy-to-use iCorrect technology with automated processes for fast and
easy color correction and color management.
August 11,
2004—Burnsville, MN, USA, PictoColor Software has released iCorrect®
EditLab Pro color correction and color management software that enables
photographers and photo labs to accurately color correct images with speed
and precision. Based on an enhanced version of the award-winning and
highly-acclaimed iCorrect “point-and-click” color technology licensed from
Pictographics International Corporation, iCorrect EditLab Pro incorporates
automated batch processing features designed to make digital photo color
correction simple and extremely fast. Color accurate images are
automatically profiled into a RGB working color space for use in a color
managed workflow. Color correction parameters can be saved as ICC input
profiles or as Custom Settings. It is available either as an Adobe Photoshop
action enabled plug-in or a Stand-Alone application for rapid-fire batch
color correction. The Stand Alone version features ProcessQ™, PictoColor’s
new technology for automatically applying customized correction parameters
or ICC input profiles to a group of pictures. Both versions are available
for Macintosh or Windows operating systems.
iCorrect EditLab Pro combines what has become an indispensable digital color
correction technology used by many digital photographers and photo labs,
iCorrect® by Pictographics, with programmable batch processing functions
into a production color correction product. It offers a revolutionary, yet
simple and straightforward, way of color correcting any digital picture and
then applying the correction parameters to a batch of pictures taken under
similar conditions. The goal of iCorrect EditLab Pro is to provide
professional photographers and photo labs with a production tool that will
save time and money in the production of accurate color managed pictures.
iCorrect EditLab Pro incorporates an enhanced version of the award-winning
iCorrect “point-and-click” color correction technology. It begins by making
the color right and finishes by making the color even better by applying
very sophisticated color editing tools in a simple and easy to use form.
EditLab Pro leads the user through a simple four step “point-and-click”
color correction process including:
* Color balance for removing unwanted color cast
* White/Black point and Gray-Tone adjustments to optimize color range
* Brightness/Contrast/Saturation controls, including independent Highlight
and Shadow controls
* Hue Selective editing—refines colors and saturation on a hue selective
basis including predefined Memory Colors such as Skin tones, Blue Sky, and
Foliage Green.
Color correction parameters can be saved to automatically color correct a
batch of similar images. Custom Settings may be stored and recalled for
batch processing using ProcessQ in the stand alone-version or Photoshop
Actions in the plug-in version. Color correction parameters may be saved as
ICC profiles for application in any ICC compatible batch processor.
