This may be a stupid question, but:
I've been doing some testing with the GRACol profiles, and one thing I
noticed today: when using GRACol (or either of the SWOP 2006 profiles), c100
m100 is shown as a navy blue.
My experience has been that this CMYK breakdown should result in purple, not
blue. I know our presses would produce purple. And take a look at Pantone
Process 184-1 -- I can't think of anyone who would call that color "blue" or
even close to blue. I generally feel that when magenta is more than 75% (and
certainly more than 80%) of the cyan value, the resulting color would be
what most people would call purple.
So, is this because a press that is running to GRACol specs would actually
produce blue? Or is this a fault with the profile?
Brian
