[Tool] ChromIQ – a macOS and Windows GUI for ArgyllCMS printer profiling (v3.9.0)

@itsab1989 Almost right only the right side is to wide: the scanning eye stops on a coloured patch and not on paper white:

The upper margin is perfect: spectro does not touch/scratch the black rubber clamp:

Maybe you should diminish the space bar width (maybe -a0.70).

Here a comparison of my specially adapted target (720 patches) with your automatic generated ChromIQ 720 target:

I have folded the paper so you can see the row width difference:

So the whole patch width should shrink with about 1.5 patch width to clear the area on the the upper side.

I was just playing around with some values. Fixed the bug with the spacer gap.

Maybe you find the correct settings. Or maybe a missing control even

I chose A4 portrait, top and bottom margin 10mm, right margin 4. Strip length I set to I believe 280mm but it is limited by the white area anyway.
The patches were 7,5 x 7,3 in my chart. So maybe 7,3 x 7,3 will do? And I set spacer scale to 0,8.

width: 7.3, height: 7.5 is ok. The trick is to decrease space bar width maybe even -a0.5

@pharmacist - yes, that is the scanning table that I have. Let me know which patch set I should try so that I can compare with a profile from my normal workflow. this does not involve a precondition profile, correct? I'm just curious what the advantage over the other workflow.
