Roland Color System Library

Roland Color System Library

Problem/Question
Roland provides different color librarys for its printers (e.g. for metallic or textile fluo inks)
“Is there a way to use the Roland Color System Library?"

The Roland Color Libararys are usually Adobe Illustrator files (*.ai). To use them in the RIP, they must first be saved as *.ase (CMYK) or *.aco (LAB) format. How to import and save the color patches can be found in the Adobe Help.

Solution/Work-Around
To import the Roland Color Libarary ASE or ACO into the RIP follow these steps
  1. Go to "Tools" > "Color & Special Features" in JobComposer (top menu)
  2. Open "SwatchBooks" 
  3. Click at the SwatchBooks Window on <Import> 
  4. Select the Roland Color Library *.ase or *.aco file
  5. Click <Open> to import the file
