Interface presentation

Before starting to use your Coraye software, we invite you to a presentation of its graphical interface.

Coraye's graphical interface is structured in 6 areas, plus a menu bar.

The Yellow zone (Creation and analysis tools)

This area is made up of seven pictograms associated with the Coraye modules

From left to right we have:

Calibration & Characterization

This module is used to calibrate and characterize RGB or CMYK printing systems

Print Control

This module allows: - Control of CMYK Fogra & IDEAlliance proofs - Creation of custom RGB & CMYK control ranges - Control of printer stability - Comparison between two test charts (for example IT8 or ECI

Capturing a Color

Capturing a Light

This module makes it possible to measure a light source in order to check its quality and also to adjust the cabins (viewers).

Gamut Viewer

A very fun module which allows you to display and compare in 3D: - The measured samples - The colors of a table (for example PANTONE, RAL, etc ...) - The gamuts of the icc profiles - The gamuts of the jpeg and Tiff

Spectral Viewer

Another very fun module to display the reflectance curves of the measured colors and the spectral curves of the illuminants. This tool can be useful for: - Analyzing the white of papers - Analyzing the quality of light sources - Training.

Color Table

The Color Table module is a major module of the Coraye solution. It allows to create, edit and convert color tables. These tables will then be useful for: - Standardizing the color table exchanges between the software used by creatives (Adobe Suite or Coreldraw) and the software used by printers (RIP) for example. - Carry out color research - Create test charts for printing control. - Create personalized targets for characterization.

The Violet Zone (The files)

This area on the left displays the files imported or created by Coraye. A pictogram located to the left of the file name indicates the type of file (Colors, illuminants, color tables, icc profiles, pictures, control files, etc.)

To use the files, just check the box, select or drag & drop the file depending on how it is used.

The Cyan area (Information relating to the selected file)

This area located on the right, displays the information associated with the file that is selected in the left column. In the example below, the information displayed corresponds to the "Green" color sample which is selected in the left column.

The White area (The central area for display)

This central area displays the instructions during the procedures (Calibration, quality control, measurement, etc.), the color tables and the graphic representations of the Gamut Viewer and Spectral modules.

Viewer.

The green zone (Online help)

Thanks to the keywords written in this search bar, you can access our online tutorials directly from your Coraye software.

The Red zone (Device and plugins management)

In this area at the top right, you can check if your spectrophotometer is correctly recognized by Coraye and access the management of plugins via the cogwheel (Settings).

​

Added to this is:

The Blue area (Display mode)

Personalize your display by choosing between dark mode and light mode.

The Brown Zone (Logoff)

By clicking on the "Quit" button you quit the software by disconnecting, to find yourself on the connection page.

To launch the software, you must use the Email address and the password associated with your license and be connected to the Internet.

Menu bar

Menu Coraye / About Coraye

Menu Open File

The "Open file" option allows the import of files compatible with the Coraye software. The "Quit" option closes the Coraye software without disconnecting.

Menu Config

Display of submenus - Observer - Illumination - Expert Mode - Screen mode

Menu Config / Observer

The standard observer depends on another factor than the angle of observation or the field of vision. Two values were retained by the C.I.E. (2 ° and 10 °). Observe 2 ° is used in the field of printing where the color is looked at closely (magazines e.g.) Observe 10 ° is used in the industrial field where the color is viewed from afar (cars e.g.)

Menu Config / Illumination

This option allows you to define the default value of the illuminant that will be used when calculating the icc profiles.

Menu Config / Expert

The "Expert" mode allows you to unlock advanced features.

Menu Config / Screen mode

The "Screen mode" option allows you to use the light or dark mode of the graphical interface.

Menu Help

Menu Help / Select lang

Coraye's interface is available in 3 languages

This module allows you to measure colors using your spectrophotometer. The samples can then be used for: - Finding colors () - Converting to RGB or CMYK () - Converting to density () - Comparing to other colors () - Be displayed in 3D () - Be added to a color table () - Display its reflectance curve () - etc ...
