The HVC Color Composer Professional, an award winning plug-in for Adobe Photoshop, is a creative design tool using Master Colors’ breakthrough color quantification technology. For the first time ever, color professionals in every field now can have complete control over every color in their work.

The HVC Color Composer Professional instantly measures the numerical distances of all colors. This allows the software to create mathmatically harmonious, visually coherent "smart palettes" that work with various target colors chosen by the artist. The software does the math and provides the user with an infinite number of palettes that work with colors chosen by the artist as the work progresses.

The HVC Color Composer Professional gives professional artists, designers, pre press managers and printers complete control of the contrast and proportion of their color compositions, and allows the user to create dozens of powerful, stunning color compositions with lightening speed.
