"Lab values are not in the correct order..." error

"Lab values are not in the correct order..." error

2007-01-01 by guy_staley

Using the Create ICC program, I'm getting this error, even though I can see no problems 
with my data.

Here's the input text file:

Gray	Lab_L	
0	95
5	89
10	85
15	81
20	77
25	74
30	70.5
35	67
40	65
45	62
50	59
55	56
60	54
65	51
70	47
75	44
80	40
85	37
90	30
95	23
100	14

And here's the output text file:


QTR-Create-ICC version 2.4.2.0

Step	Dens	Lab	A	B

The Lab values are not in order.
Cannot make a profile.


This is my first time using this program, and I'm following Paul Roarke's method.

Any suggestions???

I copied the data from your post and made a text file with BBedit  
that works fine with Create-icc.  RTF won't work.

Yes, RTF was the problem. I resaved as a .txt file and all is well.

Thanks!

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.
