Cross-media data preparation with one sRGB file

Creating logos and images in sRGB simplifies layout, even if you do not know in advance which software will be used later or in which output process the document will be produced. An sRGB image or logo file can be integrated into a pdf and converted to the respective output processes at a later date using tools such as Callas pdfToolbox or Enfocus PitStop. In this way, one remains independent of the programme and the output.

Colour-correct cross-media data preparation

It will be shown what is important in cross-media data preparation. How have documents been prepared for a specific output so far, and what must be taken into account in the digital age if colour is to be output cross-medially? What must be taken into account in a media-neutral colour corporate design? How can colour values be converted into other colour spaces or colour systems?
