Its CIE-based approach to colour standardisation has been approved by by the German DIN as DIN SPEC 16699 (freely available for download after registration under: https://www.beuth.de/de/technische-regel/din-spec-16699/295721446). This means that, at least in countries that take DIN standards seriously, there's now a truly open alternative to Pantone et al. available. Moreover, fF has created a new Colour Atlas with the addition "XL". It comprises 13283 FOGRA-certified colours. Most importantly, the Colour Atlas is being printed with inks and on materiel that are supposed to last as long as possible and to retain its reliability as long as currently technically possible. (The Swiss and German approach to products) Each copy of the atlas includes a certification regarding its accuracy, which is very different from colour references produced by commercial colour vendors. Digital versions of the Colour Atlas and the underlying data can be freely downloaded here: http://www.freiefarbe.de/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/HLC-Colour-Atlas-XL_Set_DE_v1.zip Enjoy the free colour standard!
