I hope this in on-topic, if not I apologize.
I am measuring tint patches with ColorShop to determine apparent dot
area. However, when I take ColorShop's reported densities for a
sample, and use them to calculate the apparent dot area using the
Murray-Davies equation, I get a slightly different result that the
dot area that ColorShop reports. For example ColorShop may indicate a
85% apparent dot area, and my manual calculations result in something
like an 86% dot area.
I am a little baffled, as the manual states that ColorShop uses the
Murray-Davies equation for dot area, but my results using that
equation are consistently off by a little bit. I am not rounding or
truncating.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot, Matt Larmour
