Then your web browser doesn't support Color Management for RGB ICC (matrix) profiles. If you fail this step, change your web browser to another one. Without color management, you will be not able to use Personal E-Factor™ On-line test or other: Spot or Image ∆E Exercises. An example of no Color Management issue. Meanwhile, Adobe RGB was developed to better represent the full range of colours achievable on CMYK printers. This means it can show a larger range of colours (about 50% CIE XYZ), with the most.

Feb 04, 2021 Our tests Our SDR color gamut test includes the commonly-used sRGB color space and the Adobe RGB color space. Measuring a monitor's color gamut is fairly simple as we only use a Colorimetry Research CR-100 colorimeter and the Octave software. We perform this test after calibration with the monitor's brightness set to max.

About this test chart

Three years after the release of my first AdobeRGB test chart it was downloaded thousands of times and I hope it was helpful for people that care about the quality of their prints and the calibration of their computer displays. But, being only 1500×1000 pixels, it is very often too small for today’s large monitors and printers with A4 or Letter size. It is absolutely useless with larger printers. So, this have to be corrected.

The new chart I offer you now is significantly bigger: it is 4252×2835 pixels and is calculated to cover a 60×40 cm print at 180 dpi. With this size it covers also all the displays on today’s market.

The chart has an AdobeRGB color profile embedded!!! You should understand color management and use of color profiles, otherwise you may get some unexpected results.

How to use the test chart

If you use the chart to judge the quality or calibration of your display, simply look at it. Please be aware: most of the browsers (especially on PC) do not understand color profiles, so the only reliable way to see the correct colors is to open the test chart in Photoshop or other image editor or viewer with proper color management. If you are using a browser/software that has not color management capabilities, you’ll most probably see some soft and desaturated colors.

If you are using the chart to test your printer, you must be aware of the proper use of color profiles and color management. Read carefully your printer’s user guide and especially that color management part.

What should you look at?

1. The background of the chart is neutral grey and it should render/print neutral – this shows if there is a problem with the color balance.

2. The color gradient should render/print smoothly, without banding or artifacts – this shows how accurately your printer/display handle the wide gammut of the AdobeRGB space.

3. The grey gradient should render/print without banding and/or corrupted sections and in neutral grey from black to white – this shows the capabilities of your display or printer to render/print accurately the greyscale gammut.

4. There are 4 photos in this chart – two stills and two portraits. The stills contain colors outside the sRGB gammut, and this is useful for displays and printers with gammut wider than sRGB. The portraits shows how your display or printer renders/prints grey gamma portraits and color portraits. Human skin color accuracy is essential if you do photograph people.

5. At the bottom there are five black rectangles on the black background and five white rectangles on the white background. You should discern them all, especially the right ones – this shows how your display or printer handles the darkest and the lightest tones.

Some things to consider

While this test chart has a wide AdobeRGB color space, it can be seen/printed properly only on wide gammut monitors and printers.

Choosing the Color Gamut - Adobe RGB or sRGB?

• Color Management Resources

Adobe RGB

Adobe RGB is the RGB color space proposed by Adobe Systems, Inc. in 1998. Compared the to sRGB color space, Adobe RGB encompasses a larger field of green to red.

Most single-lens reflex cameras are capable of shooting in a wide color space equivalent to Adobe RGB. Even Adobe Systems retouching software Adobe Photoshop is capable of correctly handling data stored in the Adobe RGB format. Furthermore, high-quality inkjet printers are also able to print in the Adobe RGB color gamut.

When preparing an environment in which to use the Adobe RGB color space, a monitor that can display the full Adobe RGB color gamut is needed. Image data taken in Adobe RGB mode can then be correctly displayed, which leads to greater color accuracy when retouching images.

sRGB

sRGB is the international standard of the RGB space, as defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). sRGB makes up the base of the Microsoft Windows color space, and is the color space that websites are created in.
sRGB is highly versatile, being compatible with most standard cameras and printers. When publishing images on a website or social media page, images created in Adobe RGB may not be accurately displayed on a viewing device due to compressing the color gamut. This may also lead to unintended colors when printing these images. In this case, operating in sRGB decreases the chance of colors being displayed incorrectly. When working in sRGB, we see the colors the same across devices.

As Adobe RGB covers the color reproduction area of the ISO-Coated color space – one of the standard color sets in the printing industry, a monitor that can display Adobe RGB is necessary in the pre-press environment. With an Adobe RGB monitor, the colors on the monitor can match the colors in a print, allowing for improved soft proofing accuracy.

Furthermore, in video production, CG, and animation fields, it is necessary to display images according to industry standards such as DCI and BT.709, depending on the output destination. If you use a monitor with a wide color gamut capable of displaying these standards, colors in the images can be referred to with confidence, allowing for accurate editing throughout the production stages.
