Re: [ECI-EN] paper suited for printing according to ISO 12647-2-2013

It would be nice if paper manufacturers could contribute and send a list of suited paper for production printing to Fogra 51 and Fogra 52 by doing their own measurement with M1, - which would make that paper suited for printing according to ISO 12647-2-2013. I have not done a lot of measurements, but the specs I have found about commercially available papers either have nothing about white point to D50, - or the measurement is M0 and the suggested profiles for the paper are the old Fogra 39 / Fogra 47 - based on the M0 measurement (even if the paper is almost perfectly correct for printing according to the current ISO standard according to my own measurements). That again means that the paper is in fact NOT suited for printing according to Fogra 39 / Fogra 47 because of the OBA that is ignored when measured with the M0 filter. There are however no doubt papertypes out there that, when measured with the M1 - and M0 condition are appropriate for printing according to Fogra 39, Fogra 47. In fact it would be useful if Fogra would start offering paper manufacturers to certify their production paper as suited for commercial printing according to Fogra 51 / Fogra 52. It would surely make my life easier if I could look the suitable papers up on the Fogra website, - and I'm sure for many others as well, - even just color conscious print customers and designers that would prefer to keep their colors in check cross media.
