Set up the Certified Process for Color Confirmation to use a default color bar with profiles supplied by Kodak. Configuration files are available for download on the Partner Place service and support portal.
Color bar
The color bar will be created in Proofer Administrator using the default color bar artwork provided with Kodak Proofing Software.
Profile
The profile will be a Kodak profile. You cannot sign Kodak profiles, because Kodak has already signed them.
Procedure
- If applicable, export any required signed ICC profiles.
- Copy the signed profiles to workflow software.
- Create the color bar using the Default color bar artwork and a default signed ICC profile selected from the Characterization Standard list.
- Create a layout with the Certified Process for Color Confirmation option enabled and the Default color bar selected.
- Set up the proofing hot folder or workflow process template to use this layout, the applicable media configuration, and the proofer ICC device or DeviceLink profile.
- Export and submit the artwork PDF file to this processing setup for color management.
- When the crosshairs are correctly aligned on the printed color bar, use the Measurement wizard to measure the color bar to complete the setup and and populate the L*a*b* Target Values.
