Many photographer like to look at their images as if they were looking at them on a light box. They often calibrate so that th... calibration workflow writing Read more
Pre-Visualization Strategies for Piezography intro Jan 20, 2009 Standard K7 profiles are made to differentiate between 256 gray levels from RGB value 0 (black) to RGB value 255 (white). Therefore, displays should be calibrated to print specs of an approximate cont... calibration workflow writing Read more

Piezography Profiles Jan 20, 2009 Piezography K7 (K6) is a system of seven (or six) shaded monochromatic inks and matching media “profiles,” that when used correctly produce a perfect black & white ink density linearization on a speci... featured piezography k7 inks and k7 curves workflow writing Read more
The state of the art Dec 27, 2008 I get a lot of questions asking what is the state of the art in Piezography. In other words, what produces the absolute best Piezography results? As unbelievable as it seems, Piezography K7 and K6 cur... piezography technical research workflow Read more
Scanning workflow Dec 27, 2008 Because K7 is designed to separate the gray values between 0 and 255, you should calibrate your imaging techniques to a dMin of 255 and dMax of 0. As elementary as this sounds, many users mostly autom... piezography technical research workflow writing Read more
The K7 standard and monitor display systems Dec 26, 2008 THE K7 STANDARD* Piezography K7 profiles when used with K7 inks produce 255 separate shades of gray (256 including white).
