- CACHET FROM EFI WINS SOFTWARE OF THE YEAR AWARD!
-
- MacUser Editors Name Cachet Best Overall Software Product of the Year
- and Best New Prepress Program.
-
- MACWORLD EXPO/San Francisco, CA ╤ (January 6, 1993) ╤ MacUser, the monthly
- magazine for business users of Macintosh computers, last night selected
- Electronics for Imaging Inc.'s Cachet¬ color editing software as the Software
- Product of the Year for 1992 during its Editor's Choice (Eddy) awards ceremony.
- The announcement was made at a gala event styled after the Academy Awards in
- San Francisco on the eve of Macworld Expo ╤ the Macintosh industry's most
- important trade show and conference. From a field of over 1000, 84 top
- Macintosh software packages, including major products from Apple, MicroSoft,
- and Adobe, were selected as finalists for the honor. The new Cachet Color
- Editor won the top honor ╤ best overall software product of the year. In
- addition, the innovative software also won an Eddy award for best new prepress
- program.
-
- ╥It is with great honor and pride that we accept the industry recognition th
- award brings with it. There has been a tradition of excellence established
- with past winners of this prestigious award and we are proud to have Cachet
- join the ranks of these distinguished past winners who all became fundamental
- to Macintosh desktop publishing,╙ said Efi Arazi, founder and president of EFI.
-
- The "Eddy" Award recognizes the best Macintosh products released during the
- previous year. Three finalists in each of 40 categories were selected based on
- their technological innovation, quality, performance, user friendliness, and
- value to Macintosh users.
-
- Cachet is the color editing software which allows intuitive color editing
- directly on a desktop system. The program offers color correction tools for
- both the non-professional color publisher and the veteran color expert. By
- incorporating EfiColor¬ color management technology in this software
- application, EFI has created a new software category and an interface which
- delivers features not previously available to color desktop publishers.
-
- According to the MacUser editorial staff, ╥...Electronics for Imaging (EFI)
- developed Cachet, and the way we approach color on the Macintosh may never be
- the same again.╙
-
- Earlier in 1992, Cachet won a Product of the Year Award from the Association
- of Imaging Service Bureaus (AISB), and an Award of Excellence from the Seybold
- Conference.
