The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committee

11、s. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the Inter

12、national Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the diff

13、erent types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.

20、s parameters specified in ISO 12647-1 and related technical properties of a half-tone offset lithographic print. Primary parameters constitute a general printing condition and are defined here as the substrate description, the colorant description, the screening description, the tone value increase

21、and the ink sequence. Since the printing ink to be used in this International Standard is to conform to ISO 2846-1, it is in general not necessary to name it as a primary process parameter.Conformance to the specified values in proof and production printing ensures, in principle, a good visual match

22、 between specimens produced. A visual and in part measurement-wise “proof-to-print match” is essential for globally consistent printing and publishing workflows in general. A press proof print might be necessary when using specific printing conditions that use different types of surface finishing.As

23、 the printing and publishing world has accepted former editions of this International Standard, it has struggled to implement the different paper types. The paper type specifications by means of tristimulus values, originally defined as a guideline for press proof prints, have been wrongly interpret

24、ed as an exclusive prerequisite for papers to be “in conformance with ISO 12647-2”. In addition, it has become evident that the paper types defined by this International Standard reflect market papers poorly. Therefore, some industry groups, while using the general principles of this International S

25、tandard, have established additional printing conditions with different paper specifications.When revising this International Standard a new paper categorization was established. This was necessary since there is no agreed upon method to predict the printing behaviour based on colorimetric readings

26、of the unprinted print substrate. When the visual printing characteristics of typical printed papers were analysed, different sets of colorant descriptions were identified. A closer look revealed that these sets corresponded to the surface (CIE whiteness, gloss, and coating) and mass per area charac

27、teristics (opacity).A print is therefore in conformance with this International Standard when: the colorimetric aims of the process colours, defined by the general printing conditions and using typical means of inking, are achievable; by agreement between all parties, an additional printing conditio

28、n is established and aim values for this printing condition are clearly communicated, for example by exchanging a characterization.This International Standard addresses typical industrial printing under feasible economical constraints. The tolerance values have therefore been chosen to provide a rea

29、sonable balance between customer expectations (meaning small variations), technical production limits and production costs. Assuming agreements between all parties concerned, tolerances might be tightened especially when primary or secondary process parameters (e.g. paper) can be fixed in the planni

43、 accompanied by a digital proof print, a press proof print, or an OK print from a previous print run.NOTE Press proof prints are test prints of the data files on a printing press which may serve as a reference for subsequent printing. While most proofs are digital proofs, for colour- or content-crit

In case of other data formats a printing condition description, a characterization data set 34or an International Colour Consortium (ICC) output profile 5shall be communicated.If the

46、data are other than CMYK, the data shall be defined by colorimetric descriptions using an ICC profile or another mechanism and an ICC CMYK output profile shall be included.

Further information on the relationship between colorimetric and densitometric tone values can be found in ISO/TS 10128.NOTE

49、1 A printing condition is defined here as a print substrate description, a colorant description, a screening description, an ink set and a printing sequence.NOTE 2 Quality control of the content of a print job prior to final production checks is recommended since PDF/ X conformance does not necessarily ensure a suitable image resolution or other production dependent criteria.NOTE 3 Additional spot colours are allowed but this part of ISO 12647 does not make provisions for tolerances.4.2.2
