Viewing and Customizing a Look

From the Display Manager System Viewer, you can view images and apply a transform, which can be either a .chr file or a LUT. With a properly calibrated and characterized monitor, images will closely match a projected print film image or broadcast image.

Verification

Perform a verification to measure the quality of the monitor setup and to measure the closeness of the print film match in CIElab colorspace.

NOTE

Verification is not available for HD/SD displays and digital projectors.
