Soft Proofing: Fact and Fiction

We also have some customers who trust us to produce “pleasing color” even on four-color process jobs. This means they can OK the soft proof and we are comfortable proceeding using our press operators’ judgment to get the color right. Obviously you need to know (and trust) your customer pretty well to handle your soft proofing in this way. But it certainly gets the job from design to press in short order, which is very helpful these days.
