What I am concerned is the strange green empty patches on the second page (row on the right: bottom green patches). Normally I should get white patches when generating those empty patches. Not sure how this will interfere with the chartread command (will it be registered as empty patch or as real colour ?). Maybe I should PS to color those patches into true white. Another strange thing: the -b (black and white) argument should only give black and white space bars between patches and I see now greenish and black space bars....There is something very strange happening.
Hi again,
I have gone deeper into the issue and finally found that I used some wrong data for generating the extreme density values table for the ti1 file. The table for DENSITY_EXTREME_VALUES are used for colors for the spacers by printtarg. I have now implemented the table to be much more what targen does.

I have updated the Example files and corrected the bug in the code and released version 1.5.5.

Down load again here:

The resulting printarg output is now definitely fixed:

Now I hope you finally can make it work for you and test it. Sorry about the bugs... Let me know how it works out :)

Cheers,

So I did some work with manipulating the 975 patch target over 2 sheets of A4. I will give it a try this weekend if it works:
