The problem with GMB is that their data files are stored on a 'column/row'
basis whereas lot's of software expect a 'row/column' structure. As you
noted, it makes it painful to interoperate with other CMS software. So you
have three choices: 1) modify the i1 RGB target file in Photoshop or
Illustrator or InDesign (by interchanging rows and columns) so that when you
measured this custom chart with the Spectrocam software the data will come
out in the proper format for PMP; 2) keep the i1 RGB target as is (you have
better things to do in life) but massage the raw SpectroCam data into Excel
(use Paste Special>Transpose); 3) write up a small Applescript or Basic
program to change the format of the Spectrocam data to suit that of PMP.
