Steve,
ColorThink is a grrreat tool.
I recently discovered that, in the 3D graphing module, when I click on an entry in the List of color, a "cross" show up in the 3D space -- I thought I was going to faint!
I remember discussing a similar feature with you, many years ago. The way this feature works is almost what I had in mind now.
For my purposes, it does the job plenty.
Thank's Steve!
/ Roger

Make sure you select AbsCol in Conversion options and inspect Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, Red, Green and Blue, paper white, and compare with the standard? If all those end points coincide then you need to dig further, look at 50 percenters in all four colors and their overprints.
ColorThink Pro can do a full vector & numerical comparison of such things as well.
- open the ColorSmarts Guide
- select Evaluate Profile, & then Evaluate Profile Proofing
- drag the profile in question into the Profile area
- drag the characterization data set into both the Reference Data and Measurement Data areas
- click the ‘continue arrow’
ColorThink will open all into the WorkSheet, calculate dE values for all the patches and calculate a summary report.
You can choose to graph the dE list as a set of vectors if you want to visualize the color differences.
For example, the report for GRACoL 2006 is as follows:
"
dE Report
Number of Samples: 1617
Delta-E Formula dE2000
Overall - (1617 colors)
--------------------------------------------------
Average dE: 0.18
Max dE: 0.70
Min dE: 0.02
StdDev dE: 0.06
Best 90% - (1454 colors)
--------------------------------------------------
Average dE: 0.18
Max dE: 0.24
Min dE: 0.02
StdDev dE: 0.06
Worst 10% - (163 colors)
--------------------------------------------------
Average dE: 0.26
Max dE: 0.70
Min dE: 0.24
StdDev dE: 0.05
“
I can perform this test for a few other industry std profiles if you like.
There’s a full description of the process on ColorWiki.com: http://www.colorwiki.com/wiki/Evaluate_Profile_Proofing
regards,
Steve
