Color Management--Degrees of Separation

When BOPI had a measure on the dot gain of the press, they adjusted the dot on the plate and proof to compensate. "We can now show the client a proof with the dots within 2 percent of where the press will be— with no discernable difference in color—drastically reducing time spent on press checks," Macfarlane reports. "Clients who used to press check most of their work now sign off on the PolaProof with confidence. This gives us much more flexibility with scheduling."
