xColor Now Color Converts JPEG and PNG Files

LONDON, September 10, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today, the new cloud-based color management tool xColor announces its JPEG and PNG file expansion. When the software was launched in March, customers could color convert PDF files to over 50 output profiles. After hearing from photographers, designers, and artists, xColor has added two new file types to our conversion system. Now, customers can upload and convert their JPEG and PNG files in seconds. The JPEG file extension is most commonly used in photographs while a PNG is used to store graphics.

xColor enables native cloud-based color conversion, seamless integrations with utilities like Dropbox, and global location management at startup-friendly prices. Unlike traditional color management solutions, xColor is completely cloud-based, offers a free trial and transparent SaaS-based pricing, without locking customer into long-term contracts.

"Extending xColor to handle image types is a major step forward towards our goal of providing a unified platform for color management. We listened to a lot of client feedback and there was a clear need to provide a solution for color managed, print ready files for photographers and web to print clients. The team is incredibly excited to have created a solution that is within our core mission of providing simple, powerful solutions to otherwise complex tasks: just from uploading a batch of jpg files, we return a batch of color converted pdf files, ready for print." Pedro Moriera, CTO of xColor

All xColor users are offered a 30-day free trial that includes: 

    --  Queue and conversion management
    --  Unlimited color conversion
    --  Conversions within a wide range of profiles
    --  Dropbox integration

Agencies like Cousin have already integrated xColor into their workflow. Here is what their Production Director, Peter Stephens, had to say:

"xColor is a such an easy way to ensure great colour. Very user friendly, and we were impressed by the speed and accuracy of the conversions."

xColor technology uses sophisticated DeviceLink profiles to convert between color spaces and help ensure marketing consistency and brand recognition. Because xColor is cloud-based, new profiles and features get automatically pushed to every user of the service. The system has huge processing power, with the capacity to color manage entire magazines or catalogues at remarkable speeds.
