No, Bill, not according to what I have. I'm looking at the reference
file named "ECI2002R CMYK.txt" that came with ProfileMaker 5.0.5b:
position 2S16 does carry a C100, M0, Y0, K0 value, and so does the
patch in the same position in its corresponding testchart file, named
"ECI2002R CMYK.tif".
I think Gretag has migrated
to a file format that does a similar thing, but there is
still a problem when dealing with standardized charts
such as ECI2002 that is difficult to avoid.
As a matter of fact, fotunately Gretag stores device values and
instrument readings together since several versions and ProfileMaker
needs only one File. Also the MeasureTool acknowledges standard targets
like ECI2002 at the "shebang" (contents of the first line) and allows to
export/view them in different layouts: visual, random or "as measured".
Anyhow sometimes there is confusion about the row/column order and the
rowlength. In this cases ColorLab alows you to swap rows/colums (Menue:
Filter -> Layout and Format) or change the rowlength (Menue File -> Info).
