PROS:
CONS:
- expensive and time-consuming personal supervision
- dependent on the person
- lighting conditions related
- uncontrolled metamerism
- no repeatability
- initial swatch-book inaccuracy
- instability of color samples (aging, dirt)
- different substrate / OBAs
- unpredictable issues of opacity, overprints and tints
- undefined matter of issues
|
PROS:
- numerically expressed color differences
CONS:
- expensive and time-consuming personal supervision
- uncontrolled metamerism
- initial swatch-book inaccuracy
- instability of color samples (aging, dirt)
- different substrate / OBAs
- unpredictable issues of opacity, overprints and tints
- instrument precision and stability, inter-instrument agreement issues
|
PROS:
- numerically expressed color differences
