Hi Joey,
Any software must be connected to a spectrophotometer in order to measure your press
sheets. It will need to read the both the solid primaries and the dot gain. The tone curve
that you put into your platesetter has to take into account the amount of ink that you are
laying down i.e the more ink the higher the dot gain. You therefore have to establish the
correct density of the Lab value for the ISO standard you are aiming for with the ink,
paper and press you are using.
pressSIGN does all these for you. You can download a demo copy from
www.bodoni.co.uk/presssign.php but you will need a GretagMacbeth Eye-One (not a UV
version) to be able to use it.

Sirs,
i have been receiving proposals for services for ISO certification including
software-driven programs... is it possible to get ISO compliance by buying software
devices that can adjust or convert printing plates to ISO profile? And if i am printing an
ISO plates and papers and inks, will that make me an ISO printer already? thanks
