Re: Densitometers again

2005-02-22 by Louis Dina

Steve,

I could be wrong about the densitometer not being able to build ICC 
profiles.  That was an assumption on my part, and may be incorrect.  
Densitometers are used a lot by commercial printers for evaluating 
output.  But, I'd better defer to someone with more densitometer 
experience.  Sorry if I led you astray.
