Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: Can ColorMunki measure Dmax?

Yes, it will measure dmax.  Lmin=dmax in the scenario you described.   
You can easily convert L to density units with the appropriate formula  
(search the archive) if you wish, but it really isn't necessary.    
Colormunki will also strip read so you don't have to measure patch by  
patch, you just need to make a custom target to do this.  Send me an  
email if you want a Colormunki QTR compatible 51 step gray target psd  
file.

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
