Re: DTP41-compatible step tablet

2007-01-16 by Philip Schwartz

Thanks. Creating and scanning a target using Colorport was simple, and
the numbers agree with the measurements I get from my X-Rite 810. Only
real issue is that with the formatting requirements I can only get two
targets per page. I can get at least 7 wedges/page that I can read
with the 810, so my current method burns a whole lot less paper, and I
can still use Toolcrib to send the numbers directly to Excel and
Photoshop. Still, it's useful to know how to do this with the DTP41
and it may come in useful in the future.
