Phantasm CS, the acclaimed Adobe Illustrator(R) color control plugin has been greatly extended with a range of essential new professional-led design and publishing tools. The new features can be found in two new variations; Phantasm CS Designer and Phantasm CS Studio, each progressively adding to the original and popular Phantasm CS toolset which remains available separately.
Phantasm CS Designer is intended for professional freelance designers and publishers who are looking for even greater control of their colors (Duotones, Swap Channels and Tint/Temperature) and exciting new creative possibilities offered with vector Halftones.
Phantasm CS Studio builds on this catering for small to large design studios, publishers and printers with essential and much sought-after native color control and checking tools including separations, ink coverage and in-line embedded image editing.
Full details of the new features can be found at www.phantasmcs.com/features/ including a new feature matrix and list of features for each edition.
As with Phantasm CS, the new Designer and Studio editions are available for Mac OS X(R) and Windows(R), with versions available for Adobe Illustrator(R) CS, CS2 and CS3.
Keeping to the Phantasm CS tradition of wonderfully powerful tools at a very low cost, Phantasm CS Designer is only $95+VAT, with Phantasm CS Studio being $175+VAT. For such professional and essential toolsets, this represents amazing value. Existing customers will soon be able to upgrade between versions at cost-difference; notification will be given to existing customers when available.
A new combined Trial version of Phantasm CS | Designer | Studio is also available from www.phantasmcs.com/trial/. Whilst maintaining the free basic unlimited Brightness/Contrast Filter and Effect, it now provides a much greater insight into the Filters offered as well as allowing limited experimentation with the Output Preview, Separations and Edit Image tools.
All versions are available for immediate purchase and download exclusively via www.phantasmcs.com
