In this modern era of fast growing awareness for the concerned demand by the user it is important to standardize the process so that results could be consistent. For the same standardization of each process is needed. According to the standard laid by the organisation either locally or globally. Finally, we concluded that it is very important to note that G7 is not, on its own, an official ISO standard. However G7 is at the heart of four new ANSI standard color spaces (TR006, TR003, TR005 and TR007) and the key innovations employed by G7 especially the “near neutral” calibration concept, have significantly impacted the way modern printing standards are being written and applied. Hopefully that will be resolved in the near future with the development of internationally-agreed “unified” characterization data sets. The good news is that the latest European and American commercial printing characterization data are very similar, being based on a common origin set, but adapted for slightly different grayscale appearance. At last we concluded that the use of G7 standard are very much important for flexography. There are many independent national or international bodies/federations to compete in the modern scenario which are looking forward for global printing standards to be established and putting their effects to make the thing happens globally. They are their efforts to produce standards for each and every small elements of a process. Aim of this paper is to help the concerned industries for adopting the G7 standards.
