applied fi rst, followed by white
Produces extremely vivid and clear color with the printer’s widest possible color gamut
When using clear fi lms, the proof is viewed from behind or on the “reverse” side of
the print — similar to the actual press run

Proofs are viewed on the surface of the media — just like on normal papers
