Roland DG Academy

Starting with an introduction to the software, including personalising shortcuts to coincide with other packages and progressing to using advanced tools such as ‘vanishing point’, delegates will learn how to achieve the most accurate colours and how to use the unique Adobe® gamut viewer to see which colours may be printed.  On completion of this course, delegates will benefit from improved creativity, colour consistency and reduced production time. The new skills obtained can stimulate the development of new ideas and revenue streams. 

There is a classroom session with a question and answer session at the end, and it has been tailored to demonstrate the correct usage of input and output profiles.
