Dr Andreas Kraushaar of Fogra, discusses how to achieve the best possible visual match between a print on an OBA-free and an OBA-rich substrate
Researchers at Fogra tested a number of different colour-matching strategies. Ten different profile variants were generated and visually assessed under M1 and M2 illumination. The results showed that colorimetry works well. However, colour matching between media, with varying amounts of optical brighteners, requires appropriate perceptually-adapted conversion methods.
