Custom RGB Macintosh Tables

Four custom tables are included with the Macintosh
version of the export module. They are stored in a folder
named Custom Tables.

Linear Table—does not modify the digital color data it
receives from the application. It outputs the same values
it receives, which allows you to use calibrated digital color
data directly from a color calibration program.

Graphic Arts Yellow Table—includes a color matrix that
modifies the yellow digital image data it receives. These
modified values produce a lighter shade of yellow, which
is better suited for graphic arts applications.

Photo CD Table—obtains maximum image quality from
Photo CD images that were opened using the RGB video
metric.

PostScript Level 1 Table—achieves results equivalent to
the Kodak Digital Science

Creating New Printer Tables

The printer tables supplied with the export module should
be sufficient for most of your printing needs. However, if
you have a special printing requirement that cannot be
met by an existing printer table, you can order Kodak
TableMaker software to create new tables for RGB
printing.

Contact your Kodak dealer to order one of the following
versions of the Kodak Tablemaker software:

Macintosh, order catalog # 824 8833

Windows, order catalog # 840 4998
