- Paper Simulation: An industry's first, Amendo users have now the possibility to view CMYK and greyscale images with a paper simulation.

- Improvements for Highlight and Shadow Correction: The highlight and shadow features have been revised and now only effect the quarter and three-quarter tone areas respectively.
