The Approval proofer, also known as the Approval Digital Imaging System or Kodak Approval System,〔(Kodak Approval System )〕 was designed for use in Prepress proofing, especially for the highest quality contract proofs.〔(Contract Proof )〕 The Approval is a laminate based system where up to 6 color donors can transfer images to a receiver sheet by a high-powered laser. Once imaging is complete the image can be transfer to a wide variety of substrates including papers, boards, shrink wrap, plastics, metals, etc. The system comes in two sizes: The 3-page model images a proof 13.3 × 20.9 in. (338 × 530 mm); the 4-page model images a proof 26.6 × 20.9 in. (676 × 530 mm) The Approval is similar to the Fuji Finalproof〔(FINALPROOF )〕 product. Another similar lamination device is the Creo Spectrum〔(Digital Halftone Proofing (Spectrum) Option )〕 (now supported by Kodak) which is unique in that proofs are created on the actual plate-setting device (the Creo/Kodak Trendsetter). ==History== The Approval was introduced to the market by Kodak in 1991, and continues to be sold and used in printing shops as of 2010. The Approval Classic (original) version quickly became the market standard for contract proofs. That was quickly followed in 1995 by Approval PS. In 1998 there was a major redesign which is the basis for the contemporary product. The Approval NX released in 2004 decreased the printing time of spot colors giving users significant productivity improvements. There is continued research and development aimed at improving the quality and usefulness of Approval output. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Approval proofer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
