Paper-white data of proof profiles in LAB

"How does the paper-white of the proof match the printing paper?" we are often asked. In many cases, the answer to this question is now easy:

In addition to the paper-white of over 1400 papers from well-known paper-manufacturers and online-printers, we have now also summarized the paper-white values of all important proof profiles in a simple table. Beside Fogra's classic proof profiles, all important international proof profiles from IDEAlliance, WAN/IFRA and JPMA from Japan are also listed.

In addition to the most important information such as the proof profile and characterization files, you will also find information on screen ruling, the printing process and the year of publication. Using this informatione, it is also possible to assess the topicality of the profile or find the successor to profiles.
