high fidelity color (In French HiFi-Color) multicolor printing in which the darkened CMY mixed colors RGB are replaced by independent color separation files/prints, which makes it possible to print true RGB tones. During color separation, the RGB printing inks are replaced with the CMY screen angles; the best-known high fidelity system for offset printing is Pantone Hexachrome, the furthest developed is ederMCS with several CMY and RGB tones.
