Thanks for the fast answer. I will repeat the test with another one page target in the next days.

Take your time. I have burned through all of the token on my 3 accounts anyway. So I can’t do more work on this until later this evening. But a friend of mine is coming over to visit. Good to spend some time with other stuff than this

The following screenshot is not up to date anymore because some adjustments were made but it should look somewhat similar:

Although it would be nice to know if Multi Page targets work as well - they should…

If this works @pharmacist can start a business with selling scanner profiling targets

There is a bug in opening ti3 files: the directory is shown empty despite full of directories and files. It takes a very long time before the files are shown.

It should be full in explorer:

The reason I cannot find any files in the above posts and asking for you where the files are located.....Maybe only a Windows problem ?

The file opening dialog only shows folders and ti3 files. If your second screenshot show the same folder as the first then there is neither a folder nor a ti3 file in it

Hi Sebastian,

It is the same when choosing all files (*.*), sometimes I have to stretch and press the windows a bit to get the files loaded in the window, very strange. And sometimes I get nothing to see (even with the option *.*).

I am trying to create a scanner profile but the system halts:

Strange message: make sure the file isn't open in another app (I don't think so) and it looks at the a strange directory for the ti3 file (in \downloads) instead of cusers\.....

What I am doing wrong ???
