EasyTextile™ is a Caldera option giving users the possibility to enter the Textile printing market. This solution includes two main features that enable the management of:
- Pattern repetition with “Caldera Step & Repeat”
- Colour management specific to Textile printing
These two features are not within the RIP software but are add-ons for Adobe Photoshop®.
The EasyTextile™ plug-ins are modules which must be installed in addition to the basic Adobe Photoshop® software package
EasyTextile™ “Step& Repeat” controls the repetition of an image by applying a shift to them. In textile printing, pattern repetition (side by side) is not often used because it will cause numerous repetitions and an ungraceful design. This module automatizes the pattern layout by automatically optimizing positioning (pivoting, inverting..). The module then exports the information to the Caldera RIP.
EasyTextile™ “Colorations” manages Colorways, the colour schemes in which a pattern or style (of fabric, apparel, furnishings, wallpaper, etc.) is available. This plug-in gives users the ability to create for one image, multiple colorways, which enables many colour possibilities for one pattern. Printers can use this option for easily creating swatch books or printed colour samples.
