I actually converted using relative colorimetric with BPC (which gives a good visual match) but I'm interested if the colour L1, a0, b0 actually exists in any print colour space. If I look at the data set for ISOCoatedv2 the L a b value for C100, M100, Y0, K100 is 7.88, 5.79, -5.94 (the lowest L value I can find). How am I getting 1, 0, 0 on conversion?
You've answered it yourself - BPC. By definition BPC expands the black to make the (estimated) black point 0,0,0. Graeme Gill.
