Creating a Density File for Use with Calibration

During calibration, you have the option of obtaining density data from a file or by scanning a processed test target through an X-RITE DTP 36 densitometer. The option is determined by the entry in the calibration configuration file. If the configuration file is set up to receive density data from a file and you are creating the file:

1.Scan the print into your densitometer.

2.Save the data to file using the density data file format specification (see “File Formats” below). The Kodak Calibration Software does not perform this function.

3.Move the density data file that you just saved to the folder or path selected on the Density Source tab of the Edit Configuration screen (see “Editing Information on the Density Source Tab” on page C-24).

File Formats

NOTE: If a file contains data in a tabular format, each entry may be separated by multiple spaces and tabs; however, when the file is saved by the application, each group of multiple spaces and tabs is automatically converted to a single tab.
