I would go with ColorPort rather than i1 Profiler. I have been messing around with the newer i1 Profiler linearization and measurement functions for a little while this morning. It is not very straight forward (at least when compared to working with PM5 Measure Tool and the supplied step wedges and measurement files), and the output data doesn't seem to play well with the QTR linearization functions—something like the L*ab and XYZ data not separating into different tab delimited fields—it works fine if I open the i1 Profiler output data txt file in ColorLab, covert to density, and then resave the txt file. I will work on it some more to see how to get it to work for those not able to run older software or for people who have i1 pro 2 device.
Still, for the time being, I'd stick with ColorPort and the walk through linked in Tyler's response.
