Hi Mike, My goal was to check if soft proof on a monitor is correct, how big is dE. Those numbers are from "PSOuncoated_v3_FOGRA52.icc" colorspace. I can get Lab values out of them, that's not a problem. Problem is that soft proof on monitor is not what I think it should look like. I would like...

Hi Puch, I know I can validate my monitor, and I did it and it was OK! But I still would like to make a measurements of colors in question from my monitor and make a comparison or assessment by my self. Do comparison between emitted color and printed color is the same as between two printed? I...

Hi Puch, Yes you are right! My evaluation environment is not right and probably is the biggest factor why I'm not having a match.

Hello everyone! I have encountered a soft proofing problem which i can't explain and hope maybe one of you could help to understand it. I have some CMYK recipes which are not soft proofing correctly on my monitor. For example I have C99 M60 Y5 K25 and I would like to see how it will look like...

Hi gordo, Thank you for answers! What would be the look of your test sheet layout? What would you print in the background? How big difference would be acceptable in your opinion? And regarding your post http://the-print-guide.blogspot.ca/2011/10/on-press-stability-and-consistency.html There...

Up to date RIPs accept PDFs! PostScript is a history.

Hello! I have made an action list to remove color bars, but it will fail on some PDF files. Some patches are not removed, but others are. I've attached action list and sample file. I use Pitstop pro v11u2. regards, bebris

Hi Rulf, Does StudioRIP has a nesting function? I did not find it in a manual. regards bebris

Hello Vernon, From your screenshots I see that you have wrong measurements! First patch in IT8.7-4 Random is brown and second is almost black. In your screenshot you have first red and second pink... Either you have measured the wrong chart (not IT8.7-4 Random) or you have it measured in wrong...
