How it works:
Reliable color quality requires accurate
profiles for all the devices in your workflow:
Step 1:
Attach a colorimeter or a spectrophotometer to your monitor,
and use the wizard-like interface to create a monitor
profile for your CRT or LCD* in less than 5 minutes. The
instrument will optimize the brightness level to achieve
maximum dynamic range.
Step 2:
Create a profile for your scanner or digital camera using
the appropriate target. Scan, crop the the target, and name!
Determine profile quality and accuracy with detailed
statistics.
Step 3:
Choose a target patch from an extensive list, and print it
using your output device. Measure the patch set using a
spectrophotometer. MonacoPROFILER creates the profile, and
allows you to control the ink limiting,black generation, and
advanced UCR/GCR
Step 4:
Control the quality of your output profile with expert
editing features. Use curves to adjust lightness, saturation
and channel output. The more advanced selective color and
fine-tuning tools provide ultimate color control.

Step 5:
You are now ready to use your profiles in ICC-compliant
applications and digital proofing systems. Optimize your
output to photographic and inkjet output devices!
