New subject: ECI-EN Digest, Vol 5, Issue 6

      Dear Carlo,
Many thanks for the info. I had previously rejected this profile on the
basis that
The ISO Web Coated profile is max 2.5 Delta E off from ISO 12647-2
compliance.
The ISO newsprint profile is max 11.4 Delta E off from ISO 12647-2
compliance.

I would have preferred a profile with closer compliance than 11.4DE.
I am not sure what is causing such high DE numbers. Can anyone clarify?
Thanks
Nadish

Hi Nadish,
	you can find the profile that you need in the ifra site
www.ifra.com/ 
WebSite/ifra.nsf/html/cont_consultisoprof
it's based on DIS/ISO 12647-3:2004 with a total ink of 240%  
(ISOnewspaper26v4.icc).

Anyway you can find all the characterization data in that you need in  
the ICC site www.color.org/drsection1.html

  The download archive ECI_Offset_2004 contains the ICC
profiles ISO  
 Coated, ISO Web Coated, ISO Uncoated and ISO Uncoated Yellowish. In  
 case you are not sure which ICC profile for offset printing to use,  
 it is recommended to use ISO Coated.
 ======================================================================

 I noted the above information on the ECI site. I found the ISO Web  
 Coated profile to have a Total Ink Limit of 300%.

 I found all the other profiles to have ink limits in the range 320%  
 to 350%.

 I don't believe an Uncoated stock can accept 350% ink.

 I am looking for an ISO profile with ink limit of around 260% for  
 use as a generic Newsprint profile.

 Is the data for the ISO Uncoated profile available?

 If so I could make a profile with required ink limit from this data.

 Thanks
