We are also running to GRACoL 7 but what you run to depends on what your
intentions are. If you want to match legacy work then you would want to
achieve the lab values, densities, and the appropriate dot gain as to what
you where running before you went CTP. I have found that GRACol 7 is much
easier to maintain than our legacy specs so any reprints that come through
get a new proof for approval. In my experience, linear plates seem to look
pretty flat on press
