I agree with Vee and Mark.

The proof must match the press. Not the inverse. What is more cost effective? Tweak one time the proofer OR tweak every job on press?
We’ve beeen promoting this since the begining of ICC in 1994-95. But at that time, big vendors were seeing us as "strange" guys who were playing with "toys".
Now, it is more common, but there is still a lot to do as far as education.
