9、ational standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. Inter

10、national organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the

11、 rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by

12、 at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a technical committee may decide to publish other types of normative document: an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agree

13、ment between technical experts in an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members of the parent committee casting a vote; an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical committee and is accept

14、ed for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee casting a vote. An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether it will be confirmed for a further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/T

15、S is confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an International Standard or be withdrawn.

16、ion As the printing and publishing world has embraced the use of digital data and the preparation of printing plates directly from digital data (often referred to as computer to plate or CTP), it has struggled to find ways to take better advantage of the electronic data manipulation opportunities of

17、fered. When traditional half-tone film was the medium of exchange of final material and the input to the printing plate and press operation, the primary methodology available to the printer to match industry aims and standards was to force the press, ink and paper to be as close as possible to the r

18、eferences upon which the printing standards were based. Today, with digital data input, it is recognized that modification of that digital data can be used to compensate (adjust) for some of the differences in press, ink and paper between various printing sites and between the actual conditions at a

19、 specific site and the reference or standard printing condition. As part of the introduction of digital technology, the printing industries (and its standards activities) have begun to establish reference characterization data corresponding to various printing specifications and conditions. Characte

20、rization data is generally defined as the relationship between the CMYK digital input values (in the data file exchanged) and the measured colorimetric values for the colour printed in response to these values. Discussions within Technical Committee ISO/TC 130 have identified three general methods b

21、y which compensation for differences in printing conditions can be accomplished. Two of these make use of individual one-dimensional transforms (i.e. plate curves) for each printing channel, but differ in the method by which these transforms are determined. These are referred to as matching of tone

22、value curves and use of near- neutral scales. The third method makes use of multi-dimensional transforms such as International Color Consortium (ICC) device-link profiles. The features and general methodology for use of these adjustment techniques is the subject of this Technical Specification. The

23、goal is to provide a common understanding of these procedures across the industry, to allow consistency between implementations, and to facilitate communication of the adjustments used/desired in particular workflows. It is important to recognize that these are not competitive solutions, but each ha

24、ve different strengths and weaknesses in individual workflow applications. It is the choice of the individual print facility and/or the involved trade associations to decide how to best apply these capabilities, made possible through the use of digital data. The basic assumption behind the use of ch

25、aracterization data and these correction techniques is that a printing process can be repeatedly restored to a prior printing condition and that condition can be maintained both within a run and between runs. A variety of process control methods can be used to achieve this repeatability. Solid ink r

26、eflectance density and tone value increase based on the specific materials involved, and tied back to the conditions established during characterization are common process control tools that are used in addition to the data adjustment techniques described in this document. These adjustment technique

27、s work together with process control to achieve the printing quality desired.

31、olour reproduction of a printing system to match a set of characterization data 1 Scope This Technical Specification specifies three methods for the adjustment of the digital content data that is input to a printing system to achieve consistency in the printed results among a number of presses print

32、ing to the same general aim conditions. These three methods are generally identified as a) the matching of tone value curves, b) the use of near-neutral scales, and c) the use of CMYK to CMYK multi-dimensional transforms. The procedures for establishing the aim condition for the necessary transfer c

33、urves, the procedures for determining the individual transfer curves, and a comparison of the applicability of these three methods are included. These adjustment procedures are applicable to printing systems that use CMYK colourants but are not restricted to those that use traditional ink on paper p

44、nting standards, in general, specify the ink and paper to be used and the process control parameters in colorimetric terms. When the inks are well characterized, densitometric aims may also be included for reference. The ISO 2846 series of International Standards provides the mechanism to specify th

45、e colour and transparency of the ink. Specification of paper is not well defined and is generally limited to an identification of colour, translucency or grammage, and a reference to industry grades or classifications. The outer gamut of the printable colour volume is primarily defined by the combin

46、ation of the colour of the paper, the colour of solids of the primary inks and of the overprinted solids of two primary inks, and the colour of the overprinted solids of three primary inks in combination with the black ink. These are included in the printing conditions defined in the ISO 12647 serie

47、s of International Standards and are also typically included in other printing specifications along with reference aims for densitometric data and tone value increase. Characterization data associated with such printing standards is usually prepared from print test data or data from earlier tests. I

48、n either case, it is typically modified and smoothed so as to match the specified values for the aim parameters and to represent smooth transitions within the colour volume. In some situations, a printing system can be adjusted to match a reference by adjusting tone value increase to match the refer

49、ence. The principal assumptions are a) if the primary and secondary colour solids are correct, the outer printing gamut is correct, b) if the tone curves for the individual single colour scales match those of the reference printing condition, then the internal overprint data will also match the reference, and c) within limits, differences in the tone value increase between presses (or between a press and the reference printing condition) can be compensated for by a series of single channel changes in the
