This is the same sort of check done within the profile making tool (<a href="mppprof.html">mppprof</a>), but having a separate tool provides some flexibility. <br> <br> The <b>-v</b> flag prints out extra information during the checking.<br> <br> The <b>-c</b> option causes the differences between the test values and the profile prediction of the color for each device value to be displayed in CIE94 delta E, rather than plain L*a*b* delta E. CIE94 delta E has a closer correspondence with perceived color differences than the default CIE76 delta E values.<br> <br> The <b>-k</b> option causes the differences between the test values and the profile prediction of the color for each device value to be displayed in CIEDE2000 delta E, rather than plain L*a*b* delta E. CIEDE2000 delta E has a closer correspondence with perceived color differences than either CIE76 or CIE94 delta E values.<br> <br> The <b>-s</b> flag causes the spectral model (if present) to be checked against the test data spectral values (if present). Errors are given as a percentage error for each reflectance band, as well as a delta E of the resulting CIE color computed from the spectral values.<br> <br> The <b>-y</b> flag when used in combination with the <b>-v</b> flag, causes each test value and its error to be printed. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> </body> </html>
