Re: Picture Window Transfer Curves

2002-06-07 by jrandall1149

Darrell:

Try Transforms|Gray|Brightness Curve.  I recommend you set 19 points 
(plus the 2 end points) using Shift-click.  You can then print out a 
stepwedge and scan the results to determine if each point should be 
made lighter or darker.

A generic proceedure to create these curves (including RGB 
partitioned curves) can be found in Profile_make2.pdf in 
Files > Ink Sets, reviews and techniques > MIS FS.

Good Luck.

Jeff Randall
