DAYSTAR DIGITAL SHIPS COLORMATCH UPGRADE

New features, enhanced operation lead the way for imaging software

FLOWERY BRANCH, GA - (January 12, 1995) - DayStar Digital today announced
an upgrade to ColorMatch, DayStar's industry leading color management
system for publishers, image editors and photographers. ColorMatch moves
to version 1.1 with native mode support for all Power Macintoshes, new
profiles, full compatibility with QuarkXPress 3.31 and Adobe Photoshop
3.0, and enhanced operation with future Kodak Color Management System
Components.

ColorMatch 1.1

ColorMatch 1.1 is DayStar's solution for easy, accurate and reliable color
on the Macintosh. ColorMatch is the only complete color management
solution for the Mac. Developed in close cooperation with Eastman Kodak,
ColorMatch is based on the Kodak Color Management System. ColorMatch
maintains color fidelity from scanner to display to proof and print, with
an ease unheard of until now.

The predecessor to DayStar's ColorMatch, version 1.0, was selected in
November by the editors of MacUser magazine as one of three finalists for
Editor's Choice - Best New Prepress Product for 1994, and by Electronic
Publishing Magazine as a 1994 "Hot Product". Version 1.1 builds on this
award-winning design, and it provides native mode support for all Power
Macintosh computers, and provides several new profiles, including Digital
Stock, International Proofing Profiles and Generic Slide Recorder Profile
as well as additional display profiles for generic EBU and P22 monitors at
6500K and 7500K. Version 1.1 also offers enhanced reliability with all
supported versions of QuarkXPress (version 3.2 and above), System 7.5 and
QuickDraw GX printing, and with future color management system
components.

ColorMatch operates as a set of plug-ins for Adobe Photoshop 2.51 and
greater, and an Xtension for QuarkXPress 3.2 and greater. Scanners, Photo
CD, printers, film recorders and imagesetters are brought into the system
through included KCMS device color profiles. The included ColorSet display
calibration software allows users to bring their monitors into
calibration. DayStar's companion product Colorimeter 24, a tristimulus
colorimeter may be used with ColorSet to greatly increase precision of
display calibration, and to generate KCMS profiles for the user's
display.

DayStar will begin shipping ColorMatch version 1.1 immediately. Registered
owners of version 1.0 are eligable for a free upgrade. Upgrades are
available in two forms. The first is an electronic form which provides a
