Colorblind, Thanks so much for taking the time with your posts. My strips are completely different from the example you have shown... well, the ID strip is similiar... but then it follows as: a strip of 2 banks (reddish browns, greens, purples, assorted) and then a strip of 3 banks(blues...

Hello Colorblind, thanks for the response. The "Calibrate" strips are all weird 'pastels'. Not varying swatches of C,M,Y,K like I would expect. Almost as if it were an abbreviated version of the IT8 targets. Essentially, it does not look like what the thumbnail view shows in the QMSx interface...

Hello Folks, I was wondering if anyone had any PDF docs on how to use the CMS feature of ApogeeX 3.5? I have launched the program but as far as I can see there is no functionality to the feature. I would have expected to be able to print some colour targets to create a proofer profile with...
