Hi Lou.
I can confirm what Refik is saying from having made on-screen measurements•
using an i1pro and Spectrashop a few years back.

Peter Miles
*A few years back I wanted to clarify in my mind the same question Lou asked.
So I measured the on-screen colour of a soft proof in photoshop when the
'simulate paper color’ was on. I compared that to measurements I made of the
display white point. I did this on a profiled Eizo at a 3 different white point
settings .
From the measurements it was clear that the on-screen colour of the soft-proof
(with ‘Simulate Paper Color’ on) was different for each display white point
used.
And from comparing the ab plots in Spectrashop it was also clear that the
on-screen colour of the soft-proof (with ‘Simulate Paper Color' on) was being
shifted ‘relative' to the white point of the display.

Hi Lou,
The answer to your question:
“….But, when you soft proof, with the Paper White box checked, shouldn't the
soft proof look the same on a 5000K and a 6500K MONITOR?"
No, they will not look the same, The paper white simulation is "relative to
your monitor white point".
