    Advantages:

    To create quality profiles on transparent media is no longer needed to buy expensive and specific reading tools, but you can use a i1Pro2 and Fast Backlight software. You can create RGB or CMYK profiles.

    The profiles can be created for being used in the standard System driver (either Windows or MAC) or in your specific RIP.

     

    How does this work?

    The software converts the reading of a full target performed in reflection into a transmission one.

    It is necessary to read, apart from the reflection chart, also a small chart of a few patches in transmission with a i1Pro2 (in single patches mode). The readings can be done using a display, a smartphone, a tablet or a light box as light source.

    Read the target in transmission
    Step 4:

    Keep the media flat on the light source (for ex. Smartphone, fig. 1) and start reading on single patch in transmission mode, following the video instructions.

    Make the profile in transmission
    Step 5a:

    Now we can create the profile in transmission. If the profile that is being generatedis inRGBitis sufficienttochoose the path where to generate the profile.

     

    Make the profile in transmission
    Step 5b:

    If the profile is CMYK clicking on the CMYK option you can adjust the parameters for the ink limit and the black generation.
