Color-Logic Announces Visualis3R Academy, Bringing Embellishment Power to Designers and Printers
11/02/26 11:10
West Chester, Ohio, USA; February 2026 - Color-Logic, the exclusive distributor of Visualis3R, is proud to announce the Visualis3R Academy—a comprehensive knowledge base to specifically support graphic designers, agencies, brands, and printers in mastering the world of print embellishment.
The Visualis3R Academy was developed in response to a critical need in the printing industry. While designers already possess creative expertise, they often lack both the specialized tools and the practical training necessary to collaborate efficiently with printers and help brand clients reach the market faster and more cost-effectively. The Visualis3R Academy bridges this gap, providing in-depth resources and educational content focused on real-world production challenges and solutions. The first in the series of educational videos comprising the academy spotlights the "Ink and Toner Trapping Module" within Visualis3R software. This module is essential when working with specialty inks and toners, such as silver, white, neon, or fluorescent.
Visualis3R is the first visualization program to directly address ink and toner trapping issues in both digital and offset printing environments using specialty inks and toners. Additionally, Visualis3R accounts for the impact of various paper stocks on color outcomes—providing unmatched accuracy in preproduction visualization.
"Our mission is to give designers and printers the training and tools they need—so they can visualize and resolve potential issues before going to press," said Mark Geeves, Director of Color-Logic Sales and Marketing. "By doing so, we enable Visualis3R users to minimize waste, save valuable production time, and bring products to market more quickly and economically. The Visualis3R Academy will offer a growing library of videos, tutorials, and resources, all designed to enhance proficiency and collaboration across the print supply chain."

Color-Logic Releases EVE—A Free Embellishment Value Estimator
05/02/26 13:26
West Chester, Ohio, USA; February 2026 - Color-Logic, the distributor for Visualis3R, is proud to announce the immediate availability of EVE, at https://www.v3r.studio/eve/ . EVE is the first-ever, free-to-use, embellishment cost estimator created specifically for printers worldwide. Developed as the perfect companion for the forthcoming Visualis3R platform, EVE is a free, web-based estimator for printers who know their costs.
Describing EVE, Mark Geeves, Director of Sales and Marketing for Color-Logic, the worldwide distributor of Visualis3R, said: "With EVE, printers can model the substrate plus CMYK inks or toners for an embellishment job, and then add hits with special colors, and stack treatments like foil, emboss, varnish, lamination, and Scodix/Duplo. Then EVE instantly shows how these special embellishment effects change the job, the unit cost, and the value story."
Continuing, Geeves added: "EVE does not use Artificial Intelligence, does not suggest what the customer should be charged, and does not collect, store, analyze, or share data. EVE does not require learning models and does not use cloud profiling. EVE is not influenced by industry averages. Printers simply enter their costs and EVE does the rest—quickly and unambiguously displaying embellishment costs."
EVE offers unprecedented accessibility. The platform can be translated into 133 different languages using the intuitive language selector above the estimator window. The entire user interface dynamically adapts, ensuring that printers and production teams everywhere can work in their preferred language—making EVE a truly global solution for the print industry.
Key Features:
EVE bridges a crucial gap in the print production workflow, offering clear, accurate cost estimates for embellishments—something that has traditionally been difficult to calculate. With its multilingual capabilities and integration with Visualis3R, EVE delivers global accessibility and practical value to printers, brands, and converters everywhere.
