Print Data
Open, read and edit print-data files without a spreadsheet.
Print Data opens the exchange files our industry runs on - ISO 20616-2 PQX reports, CxF colour files, Autura .ajs standards - in a sectioned editor that shows what each part of the file means.
What it does for you
These files arrive from MeasureColor, proofSIGN, ColorCert and half a dozen other systems, and they are usually read by opening them in a text editor and squinting. That is how a wrong value gets shipped to a customer.
Print Data shows the envelope and the measurement detail separately, labels the fields, and lets you correct what needs correcting without breaking the file's structure.
What you can do
- Open PQX (including
.cxf.pqx), CxF and.ajsfiles - Edit the envelope - who measured, when, with what, under which conditions
- Review measurement detail patch by patch
- Save back in the same format, valid
- Pull colour libraries and ICC profiles from Local Assets when a file references them
