Original Problem - Have had a lot of trouble matching colours when printing mugs both directly from Affinity Publisher and exporting to PDF and printing from that. Usual checks of substrate and profile etc have been carried out - Discovered that the colours produced are incorrect ( 100% Black = 64% C, 67% M, 71%Y and 71% K - 100% Cyan = 93%C, 23%M, 9%Y, 1%K - 100% Magenta = 96%M, 16%C, 9%Y, 1%K - 100% Yellow = 9%C, 4%M, 94%Y, 0%K) this is despite showing as pure CMYK colours within the program - The test mug produced by a secondary party shows the problems as well as when importing the PDF into two other programs (Old Serif & Adobe Photoshop) none of the colours were pure.
Any ideas?
