This is good for color constancy . Of course the matching between press
sheet, prepress and or client proofing then is paramount.
Closer color matching though is subject to the actual colors produced by the
light source. Hence a vote for GTI as they produce more colors that will be
missed by Just or others. I have Just lights yet I'm not convinced that
fluorescent sources are what the eye wants to see on or in a proof. The
spectral distribution is so nice on continuous sources that one has to
wonder if light boxes are really showing all the color available. Seems it
is the only choices on a large scale though so be it.
