Probably asked before and in a more scientific based style but:
I'm struggling with my A3 scanner to get some art scanned
properly. The Horizon Plus and Fotolook 3.5 allows the use of
profiles and I made an extra reflective profile with a Kodak IT 8
Ektacolor target.
That is better than the standard profiles in Fotolook 3.5. There
still is a magenta shift in some parts of the scanned gouache.
The IT8 targets are based on CMY dye layers and I guess there
will always be quite a difference between the pigments used in
paints and the dye layers.
Are there IT 8 targets made in another way than by photography?
Or does the IT 8 standard exclude any other way of target
fabrication ? I thought that a target made by an CMYKOG(B) inkjet
printer that uses
pigment inks would come far closer to the art subjects I scan. Is
it possible to make the reference data of a target like that with
a SpectroCam ?
Ernst
