Digital BW, The Print

David,

Is it permissible to post partial results from a reading of the first line
of values  of the 256-greys wedge ? I know redistribution of profiles is not
permitted….

You can create a text file of any series of patches in any order you care to

read them. By the time you get to 256, it would be good to have some
feedback 
though, instead of reading blind. If you formatted it to fit one of our 
existing targets (in terms of numbers of patches per row, then you'd get to
see each 
patch as you measured it, and get a confirmation at the end of each row that

you hadn't skipped or doubled any readings. We don't have a 256 patch
target, 
but we have 225, 238, 729; you could do it as 729, and not fill it out, just

stop at 256. But our saved targets are not in a standard tab delineated text

format, the way our exported logs are, so there would be a bit of Excel 
conversion needed to grab the L* values and adjust the decimal point in
them.
