                                  EXHIBIT III

                 PROPRIETARY INFORMATION & INVENTION AGREEMENT

In consideration of Employee's employment or continued employment by Employer,
and the compensation now and hereafter paid to Employee, Employee hereby agree
as follows:

     1.  Recognition of Employer's Rights; Nondisclosure.   At all times during
the term of Employee's employment and thereafter, Employee will hold in
strictest confidence and will not disclose, use, lecture upon or publish any of
the Employer's Proprietary Information (defined below), except as such
disclosure, use or publication may be required in connection with my work for
the Employer, or unless an officer of the Employer expressly authorizes such in
writing. Employee hereby assigns to the Employer any rights Employee may have or
acquire in such Proprietary Information and recognize that all Proprietary
Information shall be the sole property of the Employer and its assigns and the
Employer and its assigns shall be the sole owner of all patent rights,
copyrights, trade secret rights and all other rights throughout the world
(collectively, "Proprietary Rights") in connection therewith.

     The term "Proprietary Information" shall mean trade secrets, confidential
knowledge, data or any other proprietary information of the Employer. By way of
illustration, but not limitation, "Proprietary Information" includes (a)
inventions, trade secrets, ideas, processes, formulas, source and object codes,
data, programs, other works of authorship, know-how, improvements, discoveries,
developments, designs and techniques (hereafter collectively referred to as
"Inventions"); and (b) information regarding customers of the Employer, plans
for business development, marketing, business plans, budgets and financial
statements of any kind, costs and suppliers; and information regarding the
skills and compensation of other employees of the Employer or employees of any
company that contracts to provide services to the Employer.

     2.  Third Party Information.  Employee understands, in addition, that the
Employer has received and in the future will receive from third parties
confidential or proprietary information ("Third Party Information") subject to a
duty on the Employer's part to maintain the confidentiality of such information
and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the term of Employee's
employment and thereafter, Employee will hold Third Party Information in the
strictest confidence and will not disclose (to anyone other than personnel who
need to know such information in connection with their work for the Employer) or
use, except in connection with Employee's work for the Employer, Third Party
Information unless expressly authorized by an officer of the Employer in
writing.

     3.   Assignments of Inventions.

          3.1. Assignment.   Employee hereby assigns to the Employer all
Employee's right, title and interest in and to any and all Inventions (and all
Proprietary Rights with respect thereto) whether or not patentable or
registrable under copyright or similar statutes, made or conceived or reduced to
practice or learned by Employee, either alone or jointly with others, during the
period of Employee's employment with the Employer. Inventions assigned to or as
directed by the Employer by this paragraph 3 are hereafter referred to as
"Employer Inventions." Employee recognizes that this Agreement does not require
assignment of any invention that the Employee developed entirely on Employee's
own time without using the Employer's equipment, supplies, facilities, or trade
secret information except for those inventions that either: (1) Relate at the
time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention to the Employers
business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of the
Employer, (2) Result from any work performed by the Employee for the Employer.


================================================================================
Color Imaging, Inc.                Employment Agreement                   Page 9
<PAGE>

          3.2. Works for Hire.  Employee acknowledges that all original works of
authorship which are made by Employee (solely or jointly with others) within the
scope of Employee's employment and which are protectable by copyright are "works
made for hire," as that term is defined in the United States Copyright Act (17
U.S.C. Section 101.).

     4.   Enforcement of Proprietary Rights.  Employee will assist Employer in
every proper way to obtain and from time to time enforce United States and
foreign Proprietary Rights relating to Employer Inventions in any and all
countries. To that end Employee will execute, verify and deliver such documents
and perform such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as the Employer
reasonably requests for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing,
sustaining and enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In
addition, Employee will execute, verify and deliver assignments of such
Proprietary Rights to the Employer or its designee. Employee's obligation to
assist the Employer with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Employer
Inventions in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of
Employee's employment, but the Employer shall compensate Employee at a
reasonable rate after Employee's termination for the time actually spent by
Employee at the Employers request of such assistance.

     In the event the Employer is unable for any reason, after reasonable
effort, to secure Employee's signature on any document needed in connection with
the actions specified in the preceding paragraph, Employee hereby irrevocably
designate and appoint the Employer and its duly authorized officers and agents
as Employee's agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in Employee's behalf to
execute, verify and file any such documents and to do all other lawfully
permitted acts to further the purposes of the preceding paragraph thereon with
the same legal force and effect as if executed by Employee. Employee hereby
waives and quitclaims to the Employer any and all claims, of any nature
whatsoever, which Employee now or may hereafter have for infringement of any
Proprietary Rights assigned hereunder to the Employer.

     5.  Obligation To Keep Employer Informed.  During the period of Employee's
employment, Employee will promptly disclose to the Employer fully and in writing
and will hold in trust for the sole right and benefit of the Employer any and
all Inventions. In addition, after termination of Employee's employment,
Employee will disclose all patent applications filed by Employee within a year
after termination of employment. At the time of each such disclosure, Employee
will advise the Employer in writing of any Inventions that Employee believes
fully qualifies for protection; and Employee will at that time provide to the
Employer in writing all evidence necessary to substantiate that belief. Employee
understands that the Employer will keep in confidence and will not disclose to
third parties without Employee's consent any proprietary information disclosed
in writing to the Employer pursuant to this Agreement relating to Inventions
that qualify fully for protection. Employee will preserve the confidentiality of
any Invention that does not fully qualify for protection.

     6.   Additional Activities.  Employee agrees that during the period of
Employee's employment by the Employer, Employee will not, without the Employer's
express written consent, engage in any employment or business activity other
than for the Employer, and for the period of Employee's employment by the
Employer and for twelve (12) months after the date of termination of Employee's
employment by the Employer, Employee will not (i) induce any employee of the
Employer (or any employee of any company that contracts with the Employer to
provide services for the Employer) to leave the employ of the Employer (or the
employ of any company contracting to provide services for the Employer) or (ii)
solicit the business of any customer of the Employer (other than on behalf of
the Employer).

      7.   No improper Use of Material.  During Employee's employment by the
Employer, Employee will not improperly use or disclose any confidential
information or trade secrets, if any, of any former employer or any other person
to whom Employee has an obligation of confidentiality, and Employee will not
bring onto the premises of the Employer any unpublished documents or any
property belonging to any former employer or any other person to whom Employee
has an obligation of confidentiality unless consented to in writing by that
former employer or person.

      8.   No Conflicting Obligation.  Employee represents that Employee's
performance of all the terms of this Agreement and as an Employee of the
Employer does not and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence
information acquired by Employee in confidence or in trust prior to Employee's


================================================================================
Color Imaging, Inc.                Employment Agreement                  Page 10
<PAGE>

employment by the Employer. Employee has not entered into, and Employee agrees
Employee will not enter into, any agreement either written or oral in conflict
herewith.

     9.  Return of Employer Documents.  When Employee leaves the employ of the
Employer, Employee will deliver to the Employer any and all patient notes,
reports, records, drawings, memoranda, devices, formulas, and other documents,
together with all copies thereof, and any other material containing or
disclosing any Employer Inventions, Third Party Information or Proprietary
Information of the Employer. Employee further agrees that any property situated
on the Employer's premises and owned by the Employer, including disks and other
storage media, filing cabinets or other work areas, is subject to inspection at
any time with or without notice.

     Employee has been informed and acknowledges that the unauthorized taking of
the Employer's trade secrets: (i) could result in civil liability, and that, if
willful, could result in an award for triple the amount of the Employer's
damages and attorneys' fees; and (ii) is a crime punishable by imprisonment or
by a fine, or by both. EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYEE EXPRESSLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY.

     10.  Legal and Equitable Remedies.  Because Employee's services are
personal and unique and because Employee may have access to and become
acquainted with the Proprietary Information of the Employer or of Third Party
Information, the Employer shall have the right to enforce this Agreement and any
of its provisions by injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief,
without bond, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies that the
Employer may have for a breach of this Agreement.

     11.  Notices.  Any notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in
writing and given to the appropriate party at the Headquarters or permanent
residence address of the party as indicated in this Agreement, or as may change
from time to time. Such notice shall be deemed given upon personal delivery to
the appropriate address or if sent by certified or registered mail, three days
after the date of mailing.

     12.  General Provisions.

          12.1.  Governing Law.  This Agreement will be governed by and
construed according to the laws of the State of Georgia.

          12.2.  Entire Agreement.  This Agreement is the final, complete and
exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supercedes and merges all prior discussions between Employer and Employee. No
modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights
under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing signed by the
party(ies). Any subsequent change or changes in Employee's duties, salary or
compensation will not affect the validity of this Agreement. As used in this
Agreement, the period of Employee's employment includes any time that Employee
may be retained by the Employer as a consultant or independent contractor.

          12.3.  Severability.  If one or more of the provisions in this
Agreement are deemed unenforceable by law, then the remaining provisions will
continue in full force and effect.

          12.4.  Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement will be binding upon
Employee's heirs, executors, administrators and other legal representatives and
will be for the benefit of the Employer, its successors and its assigns.

          12.5.  Survival.  The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the
termination of Employee's employment and the assignment of this Agreement by the
Employer to any successor in interest or other assignee.

          12.6.  Employment.  Employee agrees and understands that nothing in
this Agreement shall confer any rights with respect to continuation of
Employee's employment by the Employer. Employee agrees and acknowledges that
Employee's employment is based on the mutual consent of the Employer and
Employee as otherwise provided in this Agreement.
