EFI Rip and G7 Certification
Bear in mind that G7 Certification tolerances apply to G7 certified proofing systems, not necessarily individual proofs.
In other words, in order to become a G7 certified system, the manufacturer must demonstrate that the system is capable of producing proof within strict G7 tolerances, however there is a general agreement that proofs being made in a day-to-day production environment may fall short of this strict requirement and yet still be acceptably accurate.
The G7 committee has been working to craft a separate set of tolerances for production use. A free downloadable verifier is available on the G7 Expert's website. The tolerances specified by the verifier tool not yet finalized and certification of individual G7 proofs is still to some extent a work in progress.
