How
it works:
Reliable color quality requires accurate
profiles for all the devices in your workflow:
Step 1:
Using a colorimeter or a spectrophotometer, attach the
instrument to your monitor, and use the wizard-like
interface to create a monitor profile for your CRT or LCD*
in less than 5 minutes. Your instrument will optimize the
brightness for you!
Step 2:
Create a profile for your scanner or digital camera using
the appropriate target. Scan, crop the the target, and name!
Detailed profile statistics provide information about the
profile quality and accuracy.
Step 3:
Choose a target patch set and print it using your output
device. Measure the patch set with a spectrophotometer.
MonacoPROOF creates the profile, and allows you to control
the ink limiting and black generation
Step 4:
Want to make slight adjustments to the output file?
MonacoPROOF provides advanced editing options to adjust the
lightness, saturation and output curves.
|
Step 5:
You are now ready to use your profiles in ICC-compliant
applications, digital proofing systems and for optimizing your
output to photographic and inkjet output devices.

to control the maximum amount of black and total ink
Neutralize
paper color
to remove
any effect the paper color tint may have on color
reproduction.
