Yes, but I thought everyone here agreed a long time ago that that sort 
of thing was not possible to do using ICC profiles. Does anyone here 
want to guess as to how it was done and why nobody came up with it 
earlier?

Yes, I think we are all interested in this. I am hesitant to believe 
that there are not downsides to this though. My guess is there is 
either a high dye percentage of some sort, or the paper itself is doing 
something funky. We will have to test that combo extra carefully.
