14、 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. Internationa
15、l 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.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended fo

22、ll rights reservedBS ISO 12647-7:2016ISO 12647-7:2016(E)IntroductionISO 12647-1 serves to provide definitions, the general principles, the general order, the material to be covered in ISO 12647-2 to ISO 12647-8, the definition of the data, the measurement conditions, and the reporting style.This doc
23、ument relates to the subject of digital proofing and establishes proofing requirements for the most demanding part of the printing and publishing market.This document specifies aim values (or sets of aim values) and tolerances for the primary parameters specified in ISO 12647-1 for digital proof pri
24、nting. Primary parameters that define a printing condition include screening parameters (where applicable), the colours of the solids, the colour of the print substrate, colours of intermediate tint values and the tone curve. This document also specifies test methods for those properties of digital
25、proof prints and their substrates that are considered relevant for stable and reliable proofing conditions, and thus for a certification procedure.The graphic technology industry makes extensive use of proofing to predict the rendering of digital data files by a wide variety of high-definition, high
26、-quality off-press printing processes and applications. Each prediction is based on a characterization data set that defines a particular printing condition.Typically, the specified printing condition is defined through an International Color Consortium (ICC) profile or the associated characterizati
27、on data set, both of which relate source data and colorimetric values of the printed colour. Such data may be derived from printing conditions conforming to the pertinent process standard of the ISO 12647 series by industry trade groups or individuals.The purpose of a proof print is to simulate the
28、visual characteristics of the finished production print product as closely as possible. In order to visually match a particular printing condition, proofing processes require a set of parameters to be specified that are not necessarily identical to those put forward in ISO 12647-1 or another part of
29、 ISO 12647. This is caused by differences in colourant spectra or phenomena such as gloss, light scatter (within the print substrate or the colourant), and transparency. In such cases, it is also found that spectrocolorimetry takes precedence over densitometry.Another problem area is the matching of
30、 a double-sided production print on a lightweight printing substrate, such as often used in heat-set web and publication gravure printing, to a digital proof on a nearly opaque substrate. If the proof was produced using a colour management profile based on measurements with white backing, there will
31、 be an unavoidable visual and measurable difference between the proof on the one hand and the production print placed on black on the other hand. A black backing is required for double-sided production printing on non-opaque prints, as specified in the pertinent parts of ISO 12647. The possible occu
32、rrence of such differences needs to be well communicated, in advance, to all parties concerned.Historically, there has been no consistency in the way that either the characterization data or the criteria and limits for a satisfactory match have been provided. This has led to significant redundancy a
33、nd inconsistencies in the evaluation of proofing systems for different, but similar, applications, and a cost and time burden on the industry. This document therefore attempts to provide guidance in this area by providing specifications and associated testing procedures.Annex A summarizes the requir
34、ements for the digital proof prints listed in the main body of this document; these are weighted with respect to their relevance in three typical situations: requirements with which a proof print, made for a particular printing condition, must comply if it is to be referenced in a contract between t
35、he printer and the provider of the digital data (Certified Proof Creation); requirements with which a vendors proofing system, comprising hardware and software, must comply if it is to be considered capable of reliably producing digital contract proofs for a particular printing condition (Certified
36、Proofing System); requirements with which a proof print made for a particular printing condition must comply when tested in the field using only a control wedge (Certified Field Proof). ISO 2016 All rights reserved vBS ISO 12647-7:2016ISO 12647-7:2016(E)ISO 12647-8 defines requirements for validatio
37、n prints. Because data are exchanged electronically and visualizations of those data are produced at multiple sites, there is a market need for defined requirements for validation prints to promote a degree of consistency throughout the workflow. Validation prints are intended to be used at early st
38、ages of the print production workflow, particularly at the document design stage and have less stringent requirements, particularly on colour fidelity, to allow their production on less elaborate and less costly devices than are required for contract proofs.Validation prints are not intended to repl
39、ace “contract proofs” as specified in this document for predicting colour on production printing devices. It is expected that the modifications of the requirements for both contract proofs and validation prints, along with the requirements for contract proofs, will continue in the future as industry
40、 requirements and imaging technologies develop.vi ISO 2016 All rights reservedBS ISO 12647-7:2016INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 12647-7:2016(E)Graphic technology Process control for the production of halftone colour separations, proof and production prints Part 7: Proofing processes working directly fro
