Yep. If you're talking about matte COATED stock and gloss coated stock,

Yes and no. If prepress and the pressroom are in-house,
Prepress and pressroom are in house; they do only their
own internal work, nothing that's designed elsewhere.
OK, I'll try to be more helpful: Are you using Absolute Colorimetric
rendering? Lighter shades like that can be GREATLY affected by either
the inclusion or exclusion of the paper color cast. What sort of
proofing RIP is driving the HP5000?
It's a BestColor RIP, however(!) I'm not certain how much
of the work it's actually doing. (I haven't seen a setup like
this before.) They have a FlowDrive RIP sending RIPped
tiff flats to the BestColor RIP which then "Calculates" the
files with color profiles that you can assign at that point.
There is no way (that I was able to find, and according
to the FlowDrive manual) to get non-ripped output from
the FlowDrive workflow.
I think they were using relative colorimetric... Is Absolute
what they should have been using? And I'm almost
certain we did not include the paper cast...
Thanks for all your input so far, it's been very informative!
