1.3 BPIF CD Version
[NEW FEATURES]
- New full colour bar strip available. Can be read either singlely or as a strip. Designed to step and repeat across a whole press sheet, and replace any existing colour bar.
- Density Range shown on main window. Shows the minimum and maximum density range that is within the primary ÆE tolerance.
¥ÊAdded ISO 12647-2:2007 (2004 Amd 1) as a standard. These have updated Overprint Lab values, and a slightly adjusted L value for yellow on paper types 1 & 2
- Added the ability to measure a strip in spot mode.
- Single measure mode Features:
   - Displays Lab, LCh, density for any given reading.
   - Measuring dot area.
   - Apply dryback to individual solid measurements and see Lab and ÆE values.
   - Visually see colour differences on screen between any Lab values.
- Colour List. All measurements are available for use in the pressSIGN chart, so you can combine a several separate measurements into a single strip for calculation
- Mac version - uses monitor profile for more accurate previews on screen.
- PDF dot gain information page as job information and score included.
-

It should be much easier to pass the 75% grey balance patch.
