It describes an industrially-oriented and standardized approach to manufacturing print products, from data collection to final print product.<\/p>\n<p>The complex production process is streamlined to be as efficient as possible and simultaneously guarantees high and predictable colour quality.

Internally, it guarantees that everything has been done right.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The certification of print shops according to PSO (ISO 12647) was established by the originators of PSO, Fogra and bvdm, almost 15 years ago. Since then, contents and certification procedures are regularly verified, optimized and adjusted to current international rules.<\/p>\n<p>Fogra and bvdm support each other as co-certifier during the evaluation phase. This four-eyes principle guarantees reliable results and recognition of the PSO certificate worldwide.
