Since then PressPerCent evolved to include more features the customers and OEM partners required, such as: support for the job format of virtually every press type and model, total ink calculations, spot color preview, automatic job

Technically the application itself is just an area coverage calculator. It converts jobs in various input formats into bitmap images with relatively low resolution (its internal file format), then it counts number of pixels that have different color values in these bitmaps. This calculation is done for certain areas specified by user: entire printable area of the printing press, or page area of the job, or stripes that correspond to ink zones of offset (litho) printing press, or any rectangle that user drawn on screen using mouse.
