PatchTool can
import
data from CxF Version-2 files (CxF2). The CxF2 data is completely
different from the Version-1 format, which it replaces. Until now, there
have been very few program capable of opening such files. With
PatchTool, you can convert the CxF2 content to a CGATS format or into a
file which is easily opened in a spreadsheet; of course, you can also
manipulate this data with
PatchTool's other
tools. |

We now offer two new Application
Notes on how to fix IT8.7/4 target files saved with wrong patch IDs, and how to evaluate if a

the
IDEAlliance proofing certification process have also been revised.

By customer demand, it
is now possible to
measure a flash output using CT&A's
Graph tools. You
can measure a flash illuminance (in lux-sec) and get its color
temperature (CCT, in kelvin) as well as its Color Rendering Index
(CRI). You can also compare the flash spectrum against an ideal
Illuminant of the same intensity. |

Convert color
lists using one or two ICC profiles, check if a color list
will be clipped by a profile conversion, and generate fixed pitch
color lists
in device dependent (RGB and CMYK) and device independent (L*a*b*,
L*C*h*, XYZ) color spaces. You can also get the patches located on a
profile edge or obtain the
gamut
volume of a profile. |
