Well...

For our magazine the printers do send me a preview in .PDF format.
Viewed with Acrobat reader this is exactly the same as the printed copy.

I read one copy by Joerg's work on GS and apart from the definition this
is exactly the same.

I must add to this that we are printing in black and white only.
