Special Color Charts

Current proof systems can reproduce spot colors such as HKS or Pantone very well. With the Fiery XF 6.5.2 proof software and the Epson SureColor-P9000V Spectro proof printer, we have evaluated the color deviation in Delta-E00 with which the various PANTONE and HKS colors can be proofed. A distinction is made between the proof papers we use, since the surface finish and paper whiteness also have an influence on the reproducibility of the colors.

The color deviations were calculated by the proof software based on the measured color space of the proof.de proof 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 gamut of the proof device.
The smaller the ∆E00 value, the smaller the color difference from the spot color reference to the proofed color. Higher ∆E values show which colors cannot be reproduced as well in the proof.
As a rough guideline: From ∆E00 > 1, a color difference is visible to the human eye, below that it can only be measured but not seen.
