Auckland, New Zealand, & San Bruno, California - December 11, 2003 - Colorite, a leader in the print and packaging business for three decades, and one of the most progressive and technologically advanced operations in Australasia, has selected RealTimeImage, Inc. to provide its customers the world's most advanced online proofing and approval management capabilities. Colorite selected RealTimeImage online proofing technology to accommodate the needs of its major print and packaging clients including: Goodman Fielder, Allied Foods, Frucor, Healtheries, Heinz Watties, Hansells, etc. RealTimeImage worked with New Zealand and Australia-based Xelion to provide Colorite with its new RealTimeImage solution. Keith Bainbridge, a Director at Colorite, says: "We pride ourselves on being constantly geared for growth, and that is one of the main reasons for our on-going ability to provide the best for our clients. The expansion of online proofing and approval management is a global reality, and will be a key focus of our activity going forward." Bainbridge adds: “Our growth has been achieved through a cohesive strategy of innovation and improvement in the way we do things. Colorite operates either the latest or the most appropriate technology to manage clients' digital content, and we will continue to invest in technology such as RealTimeImage's RealTimeProof. This will help ensure that we continue to provide the best service to our clients.” With RealTimeImage, Colorite's customers will now be able to remotely and securely collaborate and proof their product development projects online and in high resolution via any internet connection. RealTimeProof solutions dramatically reduce costs and time required for conventional proofing by enabling all workflow partners to collaborate in real time, on original, full-resolution production images, with a complete set of proofing and approval management tools. Colorite selected RealTimeImage's RealTimeProof Express solution, which received a prestigious 2003 GATF InterTech Award, as the base technology for the solution. RealTimeProof Express is the hybrid ASP/local system that combines the workflow management efficiencies of the RealTimeProof ASP with a local, high-resolution streaming server. Colorite is utilizing RealTimeProof Express in conjunction with a Private label configuration of the RealTimeProof ASP. RealTimeProof Private Label is a customized branded site, which allows optimal accommodation of the company's specific approval requirements and workflow.
