You’re a color control freak! A color control freak knows that visual evaluation is an important aspect of any color management process, but it is also important to conduct those visual evaluations under controlled lighting conditions. Comparing samples to both physical and digital references also adds a level of color accuracy to the process. And, of course, a spectrophotometer is an indispensable tool!
