Changes to New Lighting and Color Matching to Proofs: ISO 3664:2009 by Ron Ellis Summary: Viewing conditions are an important part of any print workflow. Recently there have been changes to the ISO standard for viewing conditions, as well as to the bulbs used in most print viewing booths. This bulletin gives a brief outline of the changes, possible issues, as well as ways to work with the new bulbs.
ISO 3664:2009 and
Changes to Bulbs for Viewing Booths
In 2009 the ISO standard for viewing conditions was changed.
The new standard includes many improvements, including being a closer
match to real
daylight, as well as being in closer agreement to CIE specifications
for
illuminant D50. The new standard was also changed to include UV
content. All
bulbs shipped in 2011 were modified to meet these specifications. If
you order
bulbs for most standard viewing conditions they now meet these new
specifications. This means all new bulbs shipped right now contain UV
content.
