Digital BW, The Print

--- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com, "dfaprinting" 

I built a couple of templates based on the 21 step data that Ernst 
has provided for Colorport, and some guidelines from making the i1 
sized charts (based on my use for color profiles). I also included 
the CGATS measurement data for a couple of color targets I measured 
(sorry didn't have any grayscale measurement files on hand). It would 
be nice if QTR-ICC would import and parse the data it needs out of 
the CGATS file, that would put it one step closer to standardized. 
The CGATS file would have the same number of data points as the chart 
size (21), so don't worry about having to parse through huge files, 
these are just the examples that I had at hand. The zip file is here:

It would be great if someone can upload the 2 templates and the i1 
guidelines to the files section to save my file transfer limits.

You will notice that the CGATS file has the following:

Illuminant
Angle of view

Reference patch values
Lab measured values
Spectral measured values



Now people with a Pulse or other supported spectro can use these 
files to generate profiles for QTR-ICC. If you haven't downloaded 
Colorport yet, I suggest you do so soon. I have a feeling that it 
will turn into a pay item, or get rolled into ColorshopX, or just go 
away when they get any bugs worked out.
