Lexicon
Metamerism
The term metamerism is understood as the effect that two things may look the same under one light, but completely different under another light.
Moiré
The Moiré effect or, in other words, a halftone overlay, is a common phenomenon when viewing prints. It occurs when two even patterns overlap unevenly.
Monitor calibration
In order to judge colours, the computer monitor must be calibrated. This ensures that colours and contrasts are displayed correctly on the screen.
A measuring device is recommended for this purpose, as monitor calibration with the eye is very error-prone.
The resulting calibration is stored as a monitor profile.
multispectral
In order to describe colors accurately and avoid metamerism, modern color measurement is increasingly no longer carried out via colorimeter that can measure one color spot in the 3-dimensional colorspace LAB, but by spectral measurement, ie the recording of the complete emission spectrum or reflection spectrum of a color.
Munken
Munken papers are high quality uncoated papers by Arctic Papier, which are available in certain colours. Arctic has also created ICC profiles for this purpose, which take the particular properties of the papers into account. There are proof profiles available for some of these papers.
