Viewing and Customizing Looks
Creating a Print Film Look
Selections pertinent to emulating print film are available in the Print Film tab.
To create a print film look:
1. Open the Viewer. See “Opening the Viewer” on page 49.
2. Load an image. See “Loading an Image” on page 58.
3. Click Load Transform to select and load the appropriate .chr transform.
4. Click the Print Film tab if it is not already selected.
NOTE
This tab is only available if you load a .chr file.
5. Select the appropriate settings.
•Printer Lights: Adjust the printer lights with the slider bars.
•LAD values: Enter the desired LAD values.
•Status A: If you measure the Status A densities of your LAD patch, you
can enter those values here. The default values shown are the typical
Status A aim values for LAD.
•Film: Select the print film type that you want to emulate. Load a DLogE
file to further refine your match using the control strip data from your
print process. The DLogE file should be an ascii file with 21 rows x 3
columns corresponding to the patches on an ECP-2D strip. Comments
may be included in the file preceded by the # sign. Files are typically
denoted with a .dle extension. Note that once a DLogE file is entered,
the print film type selection will read "User".
•Use Print Film Transform: Select to enable the print film look and
apply the selections that you make on this tab. (If unchecked, the
settings selected on the Video tab are used.)
•Use Gamut Remap: Select to enable gamut remapping. Select the type
of remapping on the Advanced tab. To disable gamut remap, deselect
this checkbox. See “Gamut Remap Settings” on page 60.
6. Click Build Transform to display your changes in the Viewer.
7. Click Export Transform to save the LUT you have created.
