Hello Group, I was curious if anyone had a good suggestion for averaging the Xrite DTP20's readings for a low 30lpi halftone color target made with 4 color screenprinting? I do know Xrite's newest solution has an average feature, as do some older programs like ProfileMaker. The Pulse ColorElite does not, however, I could average using ColorPort, taking individual numerical readings and averaging with Excel or similar. I'm hoping there is a utility or program that does support the Xrite DTP20, allows targets to be read multiple times to compensate for low res color swatches. Any suggestions other than buying a new CMM setup or taking the laborious route of manual readings? :) many thanks Andre Ribuoli www.ribuolidigital.com On Mon, Sep 19, 2011 at 3:01 PM, <colorsync-users-request@lists.apple.com>wrote:

Hello,
There used to be a bit of free Gretag software called 'Eye One share', which allowed one to measure the ambient light - using an Eye One Pro - and display it's spectrum as a graph (spikes and all!) X-rite no longer seem to offer this. Does anyone know of an alternative (preferably free!) that will run under Mac osx Snow Leopard?
Thanks,
Rob.

Damn, sorry I missed that as well (need to get coffee....).
So yes, there are several options out there. And neither have the really odd and ugly, Star Trek GUI of i1Share (which is a good thing!).

Ambient light measurement hasn't been supported for some time now. Doesn't work even under Mac OS 10.6. XRite has been saying that functionality will be replaced by a "successor product". i1Profiler has some basic ambient light functionality that I could see expanded should they have the interest to do so. That and some good gamut mapping/comparison capabilities would be nice to see....
It's nice to know we have some options with GUIs. How about scanner profiling - does anyone have a favorite scanner profiling solution that's 10.7 compatible? This is on the the last things holding me back. I just don't want to run a virtual box for this purpose.
