The GATF/Apple ColorSync Registry is one way to demonstrate a company's mastery of color management. It assures customers that a company can competently handle color-managed files.
A company can qualify as a ColorSync Registered Firm at one of three levels - platinum (the highest level of achievement), gold, or silver. Each level represents different quality control tolerances.
To qualify, a firm undergoes a GATF ColorSync audit. The audit consists of on-site review of all documentation, prepress, and press operations.
Sells Printing is currently in the process of completing the audit to become platinum certified.
