It is beyond my comprehension why in the year 2001 this is still a
problem. I understand that different CMM's do different kinds of white
point adaptation and that's the likely cause, but for crying out loud by
*NOW* we should have figured out that 255,255,255 should *always* render
to 0,0,0,0.
Uhm, what about printing on yellow paper, for example? I'd certainly
hope such a profile would produce something more like CMYK x, x, 0,
0, where x > 0.
I created a profile for Domtar Sandpiper, a popular 100%
post-consumer-waste recycled paper. It has a very strong yellow cast.
Obviously, you can't print white on it, but I'd expect to be able to
print near-white within the realm of possibility, which seems to
dictate a non-zero white point.
