NEW COLORIFIC MONITOR SOFTWARE BRINGS 'NO-SURPRISES' COLOR PRINTING TO
BUSINESS APPLICATIONS

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6, 1994 -- Colorific color management software,
introduced today, gives business and home computer users better on-screen
color and "no-surprises" color printing, benefits previously available
only with added graphic arts peripheral hardware. The new software
supports all Windows and Macintosh applications that display in color.

Colorific is the first product to be delivered by Sonnetech, Ltd., a
startup based in San Francisco. Sonnetech's strategy is to partner with
monitor manufacturers who will distribute Colorific software. Nanao, a
leading monitor manufacturer, recently announced it will include Colorific
at no added cost with its FlexScan color monitors. In Europe, EIZO has
demonstrated Colorific with its line of monitors.

Color Management for Business Applications

Colorific uses a patent pending process that measures the characteristics
of each individual monitor and makes adjustments to display the best color
possible. The adjustments accommodate such environmental variables as room
lighting, monitor brightness settings, and video card variations.
Colorific then ensures that reports, presentations, transparencies, and
other materials are printed in the colors displayed. "For the first time,
the business user knows that the output color will be right the first
time," said Bill Hilliard, Sonnetech managing partner.

In addition to producing more attractive printed materials, Colorific may
save on color printing costs by reducing trial-and-error draft printing.
Colorific delivers these savings without requiring the costly and
cumbersome hardware calibration devices graphic arts professionals use to
improve color presentation and printing.

The software requires no special commands to use. An on-screen color tuning
sequence allows simple set-and-forget operation. Colorific software
functions at the operating system level, and the color correction works
with all business applications, including office suites, without
additional user effort. The software recreates the color settings each
time the computer is turned on.

Kodak Technology for Windows

Colorific for Windows is the first software to provide Kodak technology to
monitors for color presentation and printing. Familiar to graphic arts
professionals, Kodak's Precision color management system provides a
complete, end-to-end standard for color rendering. Colorific is the first
product to provide this technology in products designed for business and
home office users. Sonnetech's innovative technology incorporates Kodak
technology into Windows, ensuring that colors displayed on the monitor are
produced in printed output, without requiring a hardware calibration
device or special commands to operate.

Colorific is compatible with 386 computers and above running Windows 3.1
and includes Kodak Device Color Profiles for most commonly used printers.
Additional profiles are available from Sonnetech.

Mac ColorSync for Monitors

Colorific for the Mac includes Apple's ColorSync color management utility
and installs it on all systems not already containing ColorSync. Colorific
works with ColorSync to calibrate a user' s individual monitor for color
presentation and publishing, eliminating color "surprises" on screen or in
print. Colorific enables the Macintosh to adjust for color biases in the
CRT and the graphics card, and for color effects caused by ambient
lighting in the workspace.

Colorific for the Mac requires System 7 or higher, on either a Power PC or
standard Mac running in 256 color mode or higher. Colorific works with
every ColorSync compatible printer, including all Adobe PostScript Level 2
printers.

Sonnetech, Ltd., based in San Francisco, Calif., is an innovator in color
management and other system software for enhancing computer displays. The
company's first product, Colorific color management for monitors, is
marketed through manufacturers such as Nanao. In Europe, EIZO has
demonstrated Colorific with its line of monitors.
