PowerColor User Guide
The default gray balance values for PowerColor are those for SWOP inks and may
vary with different ink manufacturers. Ink values correspond to a given density,
which is used by PowerColor to determine the ink values to be used. The Max
Density field at the top left of the gray balance table represents the maximum
three-color neutral density. This value should be obtained from your press opera-
tor or by performing a selective calibration using the PowerColor 16 target (see
previous section).
PowerColor’s Save and Recall features are also very useful in the Gray Balance
controls, allowing you to store and reuse different gray balance tables.
Editing the Gray Balance Table
The Gray Balance table can be edited by entering the desired values in the fields.
This can be done using the two different settings in the Points section as follows:
•
Fewer: By selecting this mode, you can enter the desired values only in the
5%, 50%, and 100% fields for Magenta and Yellow. After entering the values,
click on Interpolate, and PowerColor calculates all the values in between
those fields.
•
More: By selecting this mode, you can enter values in all of the fields in the
table.
