How can I make sure the colors are reproduced exactly as they appear on the original?Updated 14 days ago

Every screen displays colors differently. The screen’s RGB settings, luminance, surface reflectivity, color accuracy, and color space (gamut) all play a decisive role here.

Only with calibrated screens (according to the ISO 12646 standard) and the corresponding simulation profiles can you trust what you see on the screen. This means you can adjust your color profile in your screen settings so that it matches the printed result as closely as possible.

If you send us a PDF containing RGB images, we’ll automatically convert them to the CMYK color space (ISO coated V2 300%).

In short:

• Assign a color profile to your screen
• Download the Bookfactory color profile and install it in your preferred design tool

We also recommend that you print a test booklet before placing large or very delicate orders. To do so, please contact customer service as soon as possible.
