Key updates include:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Spot Layer Generation in Layout Tool<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for creating and editing white ink, spot color and varnish layers without moving between applications.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>New spectral color technologies<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> including Hybrid ICC\/iccMAX profiling, Spectral Color Matching and Smart Spot Search.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Expanded 8-channel ICC profiling<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for extended-gamut print environments.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Adobe PDF Print Engine 7.1<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for improved PDF processing, color fidelity and reliability.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Enhanced cutting and finishing controls<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for registration marks, cut offsets and bleed.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Expanded connectivity and automation capabilities<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> through IPP printing and API enhancements.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Platform and RIP-Queue reliability improvements<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for more dependable production.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Design Smarter with New Spot Layer and Layout Tool Enhancements<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most significant additions in ONYX 25.5 is Spot Layer Generation directly within the Layout Tool. Users can now create and edit white ink, spot color, and varnish layers during layout creation, eliminating the need to switch between applications during job preparation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Advanced Spot Layer Controls further expand specialty printing capabilities, offering advanced masking, knockout controls, multilayer workflow support, and media color simulation. Operators can even preview artwork on colored or specialty substrates before sending jobs to production.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These enhancements simplify specialty applications such as labels, decals, packaging, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onyxgfx.com\/sign-graphics\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">window graphics<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and industrial print production while helping reduce setup time and production errors.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Improve Color Accuracy with Spectral Color Matching<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Color remains one of the most important factors in customer satisfaction. ONYX 25.5 introduces new spectral color technologies designed to help users achieve more accurate and repeatable color results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New Hybrid ICC\/iccMAX profiling enables <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onyxgfx.com\/color-management\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">spectral color management<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, while Spectral Color Matching and Smart Spot Search evaluate additional ink combinations to identify the closest achievable color match. Instead of relying on a single ICC lookup, ONYX can now take a more intelligent approach to spot color reproduction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The release also adds per-job spot-color rendering intent controls, spectral reflectance measurement, and metamerism reporting tools, giving color professionals new ways to evaluate, refine, and validate output before it reaches customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Expanded ICC Profiling for Extended-Gamut Printing\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As print providers continue pushing color boundaries, ONYX 25.5 expands profiling support to include 8-channel ICC profiling configurations such as CMYK plus Orange, Red, Green, and Blue. These expanded-gamut capabilities are particularly beneficial for specialty graphics, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onyxgfx.com\/textile\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">textiles<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, ceramics, and industrial applications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The addition of the G7 Status Viewer also provides greater visibility into profile optimization and calibration performance, helping users maintain consistent color quality across media types and production environments.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Powered by Adobe PDF Print Engine 7.1<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ONYX 25.5 includes Adobe PDF Print Engine 7.1, bringing improved PDF compatibility, enhanced color fidelity, and greater processing reliability. Extended-gamut users will also benefit from improved transparency rendering in PDF workflows without requiring additional color simulation profiles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The result is more predictable output and greater confidence when processing today&#8217;s increasingly complex PDF files.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Expanded Print Workflow Connectivity and API Support<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modern production environments rely on connected workflows. ONYX 25.5 adds IPP printing support, expanded API functionality, and enhanced Dashboard communication, creating more opportunities for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/onyxgfx.com\/automation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">workflow automation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and integration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Support has also been added for devices including the Epson SD-10 Auto Chart Reader and Spectro Swing qb, along with expanded connectivity options for the Barbieri LFP qb.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>RIP-Queue Reliability and Platform Improvements<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of the most impactful improvements in ONYX 25.5 happen behind the scenes. Platform modernization, RIP-Queue reliability enhancements, resource leak fixes, MongoDB startup improvements, and other stability updates help create a faster, more dependable production environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For shops running high-volume production workflows, these enhancements translate into greater uptime, improved reliability, and more consistent day-to-day operation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Who Will Benefit Most from ONYX 25.5?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The enhancements in ONYX 25.5 are particularly valuable for print providers managing color-critical work, specialty ink applications, complex PDF files and high-volume production environments.
