This week's ColorGraphic!

We’ve been doing a lot of thinking about AI these days - so much so that Jim Raffel created a new office plan for us! What are your thoughts about AI and printing?

While putting together an end of action report for a client to illustrate a common visual appearance between substrate materials, Microsoft Word's AI wizard came up with this caption for the image which we think works well:

"A group of papers with different colors of the same color."

Yep, that just about sums it up.

Either the color or the afternoon coffee - or maybe both! - is bringing out the crazy today.

This week's ColorGraphic.
