Hi John,
you do everything right. One question remains: how do you produce the content which is
proofed? If they're originated directly from Photoshop (or from InDesign), using the
official PSO Coated v3 profile, you see what many other people (including me) see.
In our practice, we continue to normalize everything into FOGRA 39, then convert the
material to FOGRA 51 or 52 with a device link application, to avoid the magenta-ish tint.
Kind regards,
Péter Nagy

> We have recently upgraded our Epson
proofers and EFI RIP in order to have the facility to produce Fogra certified proofs to
51L and 52L specifications.
> Having spent quite a long while creating
media profiles for both of these plus 39L, it seems that all Fogra 51 and 52 proofs appear
?warmer? than 39L results.
> We have been using 39L for many years now
and have superb results. Part of our work is fine art photography reproduction, so
accurate colour is essential.
> When proofing on our Fogra approved 39L
stock, the results are as we would expect. Not so with 51 and 52.
> We have a viewing booth fitted with the
latest generation VeriVide tubes conforming to ISO 3664:2009 conditions.
> All proofs we produce pass Fogra
certification with very low deltaE values, but 51 and 52 proofs always differ from 39L.
> I have had proofs made by a qualified
third party and their results mirror ours.
> Could you give me any advice as to whether
this problem can be resolved?
