Colour deviations in the simulation of HKS K

The color deviations were calculated by the proofing software based on the measured color space of the proof.de proofing system. Deviations are therefore possible in practice. However, it turns out that almost all spot colors can be simulated quite well in the large color space of the proofing device.

The smaller the ∆E00 value, the smaller the color distance from the HKS reference to the proofed HKS color. Higher ∆E values show which HKS colors can be reproduced more poorly in the proof. As a rough guide: From ∆E00 > 1 a color difference is visible to the human eye, below it it can only be measured, but not seen.
