That's a really good question. The UV glass prints look much better than the in-glass ones. On the other hand, Dip-Tech's and the other in-glass prints will hold up under outdoor conditions much better. The pigments are light fast--relatively speaking. That's why they are used on the outsides of...

Please indulge me here: I'm confused by your reply. Presuming the following definition is correct: “Soft proofing is the ability to view a simulation of how your image will look when output to the printer on your monitor, based on the chosen profile.” Then are you saying that no gamut mapping is...

You advised: “Get the profile they use from their RIP. Simply ask for it.” As I said in my first reply: “The printer manufacturer won't supply a device profile.” Actually, Dip-Tech claims they CAN'T, but that they are working on a softproofing solution for clients of the fabricators that...

To reiterate, the printer in question is not able to print process (CMYK) colors. But it is capable of utilizing a halftone process to simulate a wide range of colors, which unfortunately falls only within a very limited gamut compared to sRGB. The printer utilizes 6 basic spot colors: red...

Our artwork exists in an RGB Linear Workspace. It can be exported in a variety of color spaces, file formats, bit depths, etc. Typically sRGB. In any scenario, the printer in question has a dramatically smaller color space. The N channels have yet to be defined by us, but can be. None will be...

Our goal is to be able to display on a calibrated monitor what our prints will look like when printed (as best as possible), and then tweak the original design, as necessary—soft proofing. To do so we have to acquire a printer profile. I presume that the gamut mapping will be in built into the...

We are trying to acquire free-open-source or reasonably priced software for creating an N-Color ICC profile and then gamut mapping our art to that N Color space for soft proofing. We are NOT enquiring about CMYK+N, but about a full N-Color set—with 6 to 12 colors. Here's all I've figured out...
