do
not

Note,
that
image
axis
X
will
become
axis
Y
on
the
film
on
photoplotter
drum,
while
image
axis
Y
will
be
the
horizontal
axis
of
the
film
in
photoplotter.
Click
on
button
Run
photoplotter
and
specify
desired
resolution
of
the
plot.
If
needed,
you
can
specify
Negative
or/and
Mirrored
image
to
be
plotted.
Click
on
Plot
button
starts
plotting.
When
photoplotter
starts
to
run,
it
needs
some
time
to
speed
up
the
drum
rotation.
After
drum
reaches
his
working
revolution,
it
rotates
30
times
to
make
sure,
the
rotation
is
stabilized.
After
that

How
to
make
test
films
Occasionally,
it
is
needed
to
make
test
films,
just
to
find
out
proper
working
conditions
like
light
intensity
or
plot
accuracy.
‐
To
make
test
film
to
find
out
proper
light
intensity
Use
strip
of
film,
approx.
100
mm
wide
and
300
mm
long
and
tape
it
to
the
drum
(longer
side
over
drum).
Use
command
Tools
–
Plot
Light
Bar
,
where
you
set
parameters
like
initial
light
intensity,
automatic
light
intensity
increment
and
number
of
test
images.
Click
OK
and
plot
will
start.
As
a
result
there
will
be
a
number
of
small
images
automatically
generated
by
software
which
were
plotted
with
light
intensity
starting
from
the
initial
one
and
increasing
with
every
image.
Now
it
is
easy
to
compare
images
and
define
the
best
one,
where
black
area
is
completely
black,
but
very
thin
lines
are
still
clean
and
sharp,
without
grey
surroundings
(overexposed).
Make
one
more
test
if
necessary.
Enter
value
of
light
intensity
of
the
best
image
for
given
output
resolution
into
light
table
under
Light
.
‐
To
make
test
film
to
check
plot
accuracy
:
Use
Setup
‐
Generate
Test
Grid
Plot
feature.
This
will
generate
raster
plot
in
shape
of
10
mm
line
grid
of
specified
dimensions
(drum
circumference
and
axis
direction)
and
defined
line
thickness.
Specify,
if
you
want
to
include
parameters
from
Setup
Table
(they
will
be
plotted
in
small
size
at
the
bottom
of
the
film).
Plot
two
test
films
–
they
should
be
same
when
you
mount
them
together.
Rotate
one
of
them
90
degrees,
flip
one
of
them
horizontally
or
vertically,
they
should
be
same.
