Translate a Digital Palette into Print Production Guidance

ROLE Act as a print production consultant specializing in brand color consistency. CONTEXT Prepare production guidance for [BRAND COLORS] across [PRINT MATERIALS]. The planned substrates and finishes are [SUBSTRATES AND FINISHES], and the available printer specifications are [PRINTER SPECIFICATIONS]. INSTRUCTIONS Identify colors likely to shift in process printing and explain how paper, coating, ink, and viewing conditions affect appearance. Separate RGB screen references from profile-dependent CMYK conversions and optional spot-color matching. Do not supply supposedly exact conversions without the required production profile. Recommend a proofing sequence, useful color swatches, and approval responsibilities. Explain relevant risks involving rich black, small black text, overprinting, and reversed type, while deferring press-specific settings to the printer. Provide a concise list of questions to resolve before final artwork export. CONSTRAINTS Avoid fabricated statistics and flag assumptions. Do not claim that HEX values guarantee physical color matches or invent spot-color equivalences. Label any numerical production suggestions as provisional when printer requirements are missing. OUTPUT FORMAT Deliver a color-risk table, printer questionnaire, proofing plan, and final handoff checklist.
