Please input your measured* Tone Values (Dot Area) and the desired maximal Tone Value Increase (Dot Gain). Optionally, you can input control points (%) of your own in which you want to calculate the compensation. Press the button to get your compensation values in the right column of this table.* You can download the measurement chart here. We recommend you to use X-Rite 500 Series device for the measurements. |
Below you can see your compensation values, which you can download as CSV-file for use in a text editor, Excel-like program or any other appropriate application. These values have been calculated by a very simple formula, which works fine in most cases. Contact us if you need a more accurate approximation based on our special algorithm. |
