Thank you, Jon, David,
The Pantone swatch approach must be the easiest. Comparing the
patches by 5000 K light and building an IT 8 target that way will
be possible. Or measure first the scanner light and try to
simulate that as the ligth for comparing. Can't replace my eye
with the same CCD though :-) I'll measure the Kodak target and
the new one with the Spectrocam as an extra control. Then there's
still that risk that the painter's pigments differ from the
Pantone offset ink pigments under different lightsources but it
is worth a try. At least the Pantone range has a similar range of
basic pigments.
