Color Management for Global Output

In December 1998, after less than two years of development, Avon began rolling out Envoy to selected international offices in Poland and the United Kingdom. Satellite offices were provided with a CD-ROM that included a PDF-based installation instructional manual as well as the full Envoy program.

“In these countries, we agreed to a three-month pilot program. As that progressed, we made some additional changes to the application,” Booth recalls. “Envoy is a living, breathing entity that will evolve over time. There will always be a need for faster downloads, so Avon plans to continually look at those issues.”
