Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Calculating Ideal Density

Hi Keith

Yes does seem that Lightness is the more accepted term.

(I'd swear Luminosity was used before. Seems to have been

Roy

Hi Roy,

Until recently I was also under the impression that L stands for Luminosity, but every reference I can find now says it stands for Lightness. Thought you might be interested.

Cheers,
Keith
