CMYK Black Point Compensation
CMYK Black Point Compensation uses Fiery color management to control shadow detail when converting CMYK colors. This is especially
useful for images with standard CMYK gamut sources such as ISO Coated V.2 or GRACoL, which are printed on low-quality media that
deliver a smaller CMYK gamut, such as plain, uncoated paper.
CMYK Black Point Compensation is one of the features that must be enabled for perfect PDF/X-4 output or to pass the Altona and Ghent
test suites. When proofing small-gamut CMYK sources such as newsprint, the feature can be disabled to more accurately render colors as
they would appear on the newsprint press. Black Point Compensation is always enabled for RGB sources being converted using the
Relative Colorimetric rendering intent.
The feature requires Fiery FS150 system software and Fiery Command WorkStation v5.6. See the Fiery Command WorkStation new
features guide.
