Yes, MeasureTool is capable of measuring the Standard IT8.7/4 Random target
just fine. But it I am looking for a faster alternative than reading columns
by columns.
As it turns out, reading in columns mode takes a good 100 minutes to
complete the task whereas reading the same target in row mode takes 55
minutes. You see the difference?
I used to be able to read that target with ColorToolbox. But now, I get
reading errors. Like the black patch in the center reads 19 0 1 but the
black patch in the lower right hand corner reads 19 5 2?
I suspect there is something wrong with the table electronics itself? But,
oddly enough, MeasureTool gets the number right! Consistently.
I tried basICColor Catch, which is a phenomenal application, but, once I get
the position right for the three corners, the head then starts to read
*between* rows?
I have a message into basICColor to that effect but I don't think there is
anything they'll be able to suggest.
Yesterday afternoon, I managed to read the target, in row mode, using Kodak
ProfileWizardMio v4. I have yet to compare the results, whether the target
will read the same repeatedly.
But the initial results are encouraging.
I tried MonacoProfiler 4.8 too but it suffers from the same discrepancy as
ColorPort: even though it reads the target row by row, starting from the
upper left hand corner (never understood why?), yet the patches come in the
wrong order, recorded column by column?
I tried with an earlier version of Color Tools 3.0 but I got the same error.
I have another used Spectroscan coming in. I am anxious to try it with this
one.
My next step is to try Argyll... Just have to figure out how to import the
reference file in.
Thank's for your help / Roger
