Hey there,
The statement "Fogra 51 will be much closer to
the result on the printed material" is hopefully only true if the destination print
material has a white point in accordance with Fogra 51 (?)
That should be true with every proof simulation you're doing. If the paper white of
your proof has nothing to do with your printing substrate, what's the point? It's
just a nice colored print.
First question before proofing – on which paper will it be printed on! And then choose
your profiles accordingly.
But I'm wondering with all the criticism (not just with the question raised by John
now) about F51/F52 is warmer/colder/"more this and that" than F39/F47 – what are
you acutally comparing?
I get the feeling that it's mostly theoretical discussions about values or like now
comparisons between old and new proofs. I do like reading and wrapping my mind around
these discussions though ;)
But that there are differences between old and new – of course, that's the point!
As we all should know the new profiles were generated to get a closer visual match between
proof and printed endresult. So the proofs themselves must look different! Otherwise there
would be no "closer match".
What you should compare is actually and truly printed products...
