Hi Peter, for my purposes it's "assign", since I want to characterize
exactly the whole paper/ink/printer setup as it is printing images with
linearizations etc in place. So this means the treatment going in with
the QTR tiff, has to be the same as an image would have been… Hope that
makes sense. With my setup, since it's mono inks control by the RIP, and
linearized to a standard, rather than needing 3d cm converions, I just
pop the grascale target tiff right in the RIP and it works as intended.
I assume IPs B&W setups utilize CM, so you may need to tag the target.
If your B&W images normally are prepped in a grayscale space, maybe use
that one? Thanks for your comment too.
