I had issues posting to the list since November last year. The post about custom color chart was posted by my wife from her yahoo account. I tried 3 different email accounts and it did not get through before.
Steve is right. I will have to pare it down. The reason for my custom chart is exactly what Rick guessed. I have a brand new gmg system and I was happy with my proofs matching My Fuji FinalProof till I ran some job with neutrals in highlight. My gmg proof was too warm. I need to make it ,match closer. I tried Profilemaker and it does NOT work. You just cannot type your own color values you want to use. Same in ColorPort unless you ad custom - but this will awful amount of time. I am looking at some automation. The worst I would open ECI or IT8 and add more values to them.
I did not look at BabelColor PatchTool. Does it allow you to pick your own color values, or it will generate it's own?
Anyway, I need to make a custom color chart for my gmg colorproof and I am looking for automation.

Now go to ColorPort (also free). In the Create Target tab go to Patch
Set>New. Hit the Import Patches button at the top and direct the
program
to the text file you just created. Set all your other parameters and
hit
Save Target. You now have a target and reference file.
You also could just go into Patch Set>New and type everything in here,
but
I'm not sure how you get a reference file out of it.
Once defined here, it would saved as an xml file and immediately
available in the Target drop down menu of the Measure Target tab. After
you measure the target in Colorport, and save as a CGATS file, you could
use the CGATS file as a reference file within say MeasureTool.
