Colour management

To ensure that we achieve the intended colour result in print, colour management is essential and that starts with creating the source files in layout software.

We use the ISO 12647-2 standard for offset printing for this. Standardised colour profiles have been compiled for this standard. Each profile takes into account the maximum colour/ink range per paper type.

How and which settings to use with layout software and an overview of the different colour profiles can be found under PDF generation and ICC colour profiles.
