Dear Alison McKinzie
We have recently done some quantitative analysis of profiling packages
making scanner, printer and monitor profiles. Some of the results are shown
below.
The following products are listed in order with the best results first. This
is averaged over Kodak, Fuji and Agfa charts and is only colorimetric
intent. Prices were current when the document was written, which was July 1,
2002.
