What's a color densitometer? As far as I know, density has nothing to do
with color. If you buy a colorimeter, it ought to be able to do density as
well, by arithmetic on the three color values. Can't say for sure what
software comes with the X-rite, but my spectro will do density, color, and
spectral measurements.
