Lee,
Thank you for making me aware of your offering.
I will try the demo version of your software, and see how it works.
Please do not take the following as meant in any way to diminish your
accomplishment, but a similar procedure can also be performed using
ColorThink Pro worksheets. (I have no commercial ties to Chromix -- just an
appreciative customer.)
One can use CT Pro to open a CMYK color list, assign the output profile to
it, convert to the display profile (using Absolute Colorimetric, of course),
and calculate the resultant E values (using the 76, 94, CMC, or 2000
formulas).
Reports can be generated (for the source, the converted values and the E
results), and the data points can also be graphed in 3D Lab space, so that
one can see where they sit in relation to the output profile's boundaries.
What one *cannot* do with CT Pro, as far as I know (and your application
seems to offer), is use a measurement instrument (colorimeter or
spectrophotometer) to read the values off the display. CT Pro just shows the
colorimetric values resulting from the monitor profile itself, not as they
*actually* measure off the display -- which may differ to some degree from
the *expected* colorimetric values.
