Snowflake Tolerance Benefits:
November 4, 2022
Snowflake Tolerance Benefits:
- Provides the brand with a metric that will meet their visual expectations every time,
The same ∆E results in visual differences, Snowflake eliminates these differences - Provides printer with more production tolerances to create the brand's color
Eliminates false fails (color looks correct, but fails ∆E) which allows printers to be more profitable in their work to meet the brand's expectations
How to implement Snowflake
- Create a color reference in your Color Library or Palette. You may measure physical sample or enter Lab coordinates
- Create Snowflake PDF
- Display it on calibrated monitor - use Display Inspector to calibrate and profile it.
- Adjust steps according to visual judgment
- Print Snowflake on your calibrated proofer (high precision is required)
- Judge values on the print
- Save Snowflake tolerance to the Reference in your Color Library
Now you can use it in your QC tasks.
