Automatic Correction

Automatic Correction - correct and optimize measurement data automatically. It is the most used tool and is therefore placed on the top.

Data Import/Export

The group Data Import/Export - contains tools that beside loading existing measurement data files via the file menu allow to create measurement files.

Custom Chart - designed for creating the reference files for test chart generation. Custom Chart allows you to generate reference files for color spaces such as Gray, RGB, and CMYK. Creating multicolor charts requires a ColorAnt L license. Charts can have up to 15 channels.

Export Chart - allows to create test charts based on device color values, which can be stored as TIFF or PSD files to be printed on a printer.

Measure Software - measure any test charts or media wedges via the UPPCT software tool and transmit the measurement data directly to ColorAnt. There are multiple measurement instruments supported.

Report Tool - generates a comprehensive analysis of your measurement data in form of a PDF or XML file. It also provides the user with corrective recommendations for such measurement

Embed CxF/X-4 - allows CxF/X-4 spectral information to be embedded in PDF documents

Save History Log - records every editing step, and saves all activities that have been applied to all files as a comprehensive PDF document

Editing

The actual tools to edit your measurement files are located in the Editing group.

Redundancies - Corrects color patches by averaging the redundant patches and replacing with the same value.

Correction - detects faulty measurements or inconsistent measured values and replaces the data with expected measurement values.

Smoothing - Corrects inhomogeneous measurement data and non-smooth curves by interpolating existing smoothed data.

White Correction Apply manual corrections to whitest color patch, typically the paper or other substrate.

The Brightener tool- adjusts the effect of optical brightening agents (OBA) on measurement data used in papers.

The Tone Value tool - allows very targeted changes to the tone value increase (TVI) curves. The latest version introduces a fourth correction option, ISO 20654 (Multicolor), which only adjusts the multicolor channels to ISO 20654 and leaves the CMYK channels untouched. In addition, a Protect Lights slider has been added which helps users to leave the highlights untouched when applying G7 or ISO 20654 corrections.

The Rescale tool - is an optional tool for re-sorting, making random test charts readable or also for rescaling to completely different test chart layouts.

Edit Primaries - is a very comprehensive tool to edit, exchange, add or remove primaries and the paper white point in your measurement data.

new Adopt Secondaries feature allows user to take advantage of color overprints with other primaries, such as secondary color data

Color Editor - edit color patches and process color conversions of spot colors

edit patch names, lab values (CIE), or device color values (DCS)
convert and optimize a complete spot color library to a target profile for RGB, CMYK, or Multicolor

Merging and Conversion

The tools in the Merging and Conversion group are designed for use on multiple measurement data sets and it contains special tools for conversion.

Averaging - average multiple test chart measurement files having the same layout and amount of patches.

Link - merge multiple single readings of test charts to one big measurement file.
