Graeme - I think you missed the point.
It is quite difficult to ask Time magazine and RR Donnelly to make a test
run of my ICC targets on one of their 384 presses, especially since they do
not know which press the ad will be run on.
I have to proof to some standard, and Time specifies SWOP.

This rather ignores the problem of how the proof profile is created, such
that the press can be (easily) made to match it.
One approach is to specifically do a press run for the purposes of
profiling.
Take some care to set it up the way you want to run, in terms of quality,
cost of running etc, then profile it. Average more than one chart. Use the
profile as the target for the proofer and for separations. Use the proofer
output (which is presumably more stable than the press) as the visual target
for the press operators.
