TONE CURVES AND HISTOGRAM

CORRECTING THE HISTOGRAM

The input slide bar has the Input shadow slider, Input gamma slider and Input Highlight slider. The output slide bar has the Output Highlight slider and Output shadow slider.

The image can be corrected by dragging the slider or inputting the value in the text box.

The change will reflect the prescan image.

1.Drag the slider to move it to the desired level or input the value in the text box.

• The change will be reflected in the prescan image.

Input Level Histogram

*For example, if you use the input Highlight slider and input shadow slider to remove areas which contain no pixels (flat line at left or right) the original colour will be better represented.

Although the output slider does not normally need to be adjusted, use it according to the characteristics of the output equipment. For example, use the output slider when the black part is not printed clearly with the 0 setting in the black level. (In this case, adjust the Output level by moving the Output Shadow slider to the right slightly while checking the correction result).

Displaying the Histogram of Each R, G, B colour

1.Click on .

•When is clicked again, the histogram of each R, G, B channel disappears.

2.By dragging the Input Highlight slider (right) or the Input Shadow slider (left) in each R, G, B channel or inputting the value directly in each text box, the Histogram RGB can be corrected.

•The change will be reflected in the prescan image displayed in the Image Correction display area.

•The change corrected in each R, G, B channel will also be reflected in each corresponding tone curve.
