Step 2: Bellow CMYK chart is to be measured as spectral data with M e a s u r eTo o l (or i1Profiler) for CMYK_Gravure application, after you have properly set your solid CMYK densities u s i n g CMYK_100% application. Please measure bellow CMYK_Gravure test chart on many good copies before you paste your spectral measurement data to be averaged by CMYK_Gravure application : 3 2 1

Step 3: For flexographic printing only, according to ISO 12647-6, or for building your own CMYK standard: Above chart is the i1 CMYK target 1.1: Quite enough for computing accurate CMYK ICC profiles, as long as you average measures on a few good prints! You can use it to make your own press ICC profile after you have matched your ISO12647-6 target standard using CMYK_100% (Solid inks densities) and then CMYK_Gravure applications (TVI curves for film/foil, paper or corrugated). For computing your flexographic printing configuration CMYK ICC profile, please measure above CMYK test chart on a number of good printed copies, and then average your spectral measurement data before computing your ICC profile from your averaged measurement file.

Step 1: Measure one of the two CMYK charts bellow as spectral data with MeasureTool (or i1Profiler)
for CMYK_100% application. First chart is OK for setting your solid inks densities matching any ISO12647-2-3-4-6 standard and controlling your superimpositions. We recommend using the second chart when you want to establish your own CMYK standard, because it allows you monitoring your print contrast while you increase your solid inks 1 densities.

first produce only the black plate and use PLATE software:
