i read somewhere that dye-sub's benefited from the largest target.
any plans on your breaking that target up into 4x6 in 'pieces'?
it would be very much worth it for me to do this, if it means
accuracy in profiling.

Any printer that has linearity problems can profit from more patches. Dye-subs often have linearity issues, so they often fall in that category. Quartering the three pages of the 729 three page targets, printing the 12 resulting 4x6 prints, reassembling into three 8x12 pages, and reading them is more work that many would care to put into a 4x6 printer, but is should certainly improve results. Given that it would not be a commonly used set of targets, and that there would be an awful lot of pieces, I don't anticipate adding this to the TIFF targets that are installed with the product, but we have already put together quarters of the one page 225 patch target for inclusion in the Targets folder, though not to be built into the vector targets in the application.
