Sticker Printing Quality versus what we see in the LEGO Builder App

I was just about to review this set of prints and I am in kind of a dilemma...

https://library.ldraw.org/sticker-sheets/433

and found a good reference picture:
https://cdn.toypro.com/media/cache/tp_pr...82492.webp

the LDraw files and the reference show the very prominit "black" or rather "dark" line between colours and as outline.

However in the app, there is no such line, i.e. blue is directly next to DGB.

When I look at the photo of the stickers I would rather say keep this specific line, any opinions on this very case?


In other files one can really see that the line was due do accidental overlaps respectively overlaps by design

The sticker sheet shows clearly a black line, and therefore it has to be authored.

Misprints are not modeled. Use your best judgment.

The "misprint" is so perfect it has to be intentional.
But I don't think it is a black line. Think it is an intended blend of blue and dbg, that looks black.

In this specific case I agree. I was speaking of offset printing in general and using your best judgement.

It is really weird, but we know the data for the app is not perfect as well, I am going to review with the lines
