I'm going crazy since my company has decided to check the Total Area Coverage on every single page we print.

The main problem that i found out is:

I have different values If i measure a CMYK area with:

Acrobat Output Preview

Enfocus Pitstop

Photoshop

Has someone experience on these cases?

There are different ways to calculate this, but you can start by checking the CMYK profile In use. Is it the same in each case? Does it match your press conditions? None of these tools just report "raw" CMYK.

The colorsettings in Acrobat and Pitstop are the same.

Acrobat and Pitstop versione are the same, but Mac OS System is different.

Older version like MacOS 10.7.5 it works wrong.

MacOS 10.11.6 it works correctly.
