But we would like to point out, also to very professional circles, that free mathematical colour models lying dormant in every computer are an exact and sensible, often better alternative to the commercial solutions and manufacturers' collections. Technical progress makes this possible at an acceptable cost.<\/p>\n<p>Areas related to standardisation are often found in the public sector. In this sense, it would be conceivable, for example, that at some point, at our instigation, the European flag would no longer be in Pantone (Reflex Blue and Yellow, cf. <a href=\"http:\/\/publications.europa.eu\/code\/de\/de-5000100.htm\">here<\/a>), but in a mathematical model that is freely available everywhere. It would make sense in any case, just think of the fact that a private company could change its products at any time, or of colour definitions for non-Pantone implementations, or of systematic variations of colours for corporate design purposes, or of passing on colour values. All these common problems are no more with CIELAB HLC colours according to DIN SPEC 16699.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks again to DIN e.V., especially Mr Lamm, for the perfect cooperation!<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4101\" style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"70%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02.png 2326w, https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02-300x199.png 300w, https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02-1024x678.png 1024w, https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02-768x508.png 768w, https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02-1536x1017.png 1536w, https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02-2048x1356.png 2048w, https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02-380x252.png 380w, https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02-800x530.png 800w, https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec02-1160x768.png 1160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2326px) 100vw, 2326px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4101\" style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freiefarbe.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/dinspec03.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"70%\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 44-page PDF is bilingual in German and English, and can be ordered from Beuth Verlag, which publishes the DIN...","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":4099,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_oasis_is_in_workflow":0,"_oasis_original":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18,19,20,58],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-4091","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-allgemein","8":"category-freiefarbe","9":"category-news","10":"category-newsbeitrag-startseite"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4091","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4091"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4091\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8346,"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4091\/revisions\/8346"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4099"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4091"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4091"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freiefarbe.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4091"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
