Thanks Karl
You took your words out of my mouth as I was about to reply :-)
I have used the Basicolor CMYK profiles, including the Fogra 39 based ones
and can confirm Karl's claims.
In many areas including saturated reds and blues where the ECI profiles
produce, for RGB blues, a violet result, and the reds; too orange, the
profiles show a better 'separation' to CMYK from RGB images with profiles
such as Adobe RGB and ECI v2.
And as Karl said, there is no 'official' ISO profile, even the Fogra data
sets, (thank you Fogra) are not official.
You could produce your own by running a press to precise ISO 12647 numbers,
with a ECI 2002 chart and produce your own data set and profiles from the
printed sheets.
