Help me match my iGen to an offset press!
Ok, heres my scenario:
We reprint covers for case bound books, that were orginally produced offset. Our prepress is given quark files, which they run through Prinergy, and we print them on the iGen as PDF's. Im dont think any color adjustment is done in Prinergy, and we run them as CMYK swop_plus / relative colormetric on the iGen. This workflow is accurate about 60% of the time. Other times we adjust the rendering intents, add a TRC, or just produce it as is. I have been keeping a record of what settings we use for what covers, but we are getting to the point where there are too many to keep track of.
Heres the problem: I dont have access to the offset press. These were originally printed at a competitors facility. Is there any way to create a profile to emulate what they are producing? I have access to offset and proofing equipment here, just not the actual press they ran on.
Thanks
Matt
