<h3>Comments<br>
</h3>
This is the tool creates a calibration (<a href="File_Formats.html#.cal">.cal</a>)
file that has a linear table
for each channel. This is useful in setting up a display for
evaluation, disabling printer calibration, testing, or to recover a
display that has a strange set of
Video LUTs loaded.<br>
<br>
<a name="t"></a>The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-t</span> option
selects the type of device the calibration file is intended for.
Default is display.<br>
<br>
<a name="d"></a>The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-d</span> option
selects the device colorspace. The default for input and display is <font
 style="font-weight: bold;" size="-1"><span
 style="font-family: monospace;">Video RGB</span></font><font size="-1"><span
 style="font-family: monospace;">, while the default for output is <span
 style="font-weight: bold;">CMYK</span>.<br>
</span></font><br>
<a name="D"></a> The <b>-D</b> parameter modifies the colorspace set
by <span style="font-weight: bold;">-d</span> by allowing individual
colorants to be added or subtracted from the colorspace.<br>
<br>
Optionally it can be used to create a non-linear calibration file,
useful for diagnostics. Each of the device channel curves can be
given a gamma (power curve) shape, scaled to a maximum other than
1.0, and offset from a value other than 0.0.<br>
