Viewing Tips
Before viewing proofs on a website please follow the simple procedure below to match your monitor as closely as possible to standard viewing conditions.
Take a look at the graphic below:
- You should see 16 steps going from almost pure black on the left to white on the right (the rightmost block is twice as wide as the others.
- Please adjust your monitor brightness and or contrast until you can see as many steps as possible. Lights glaring on your monitor may affect this also.
- The shades of gray should appear without any color cast, many monitors are a little bluish by default. (And so are many brands of computer paper so that's not a good comparison.) But trust your eyes.
After following the above adjustments you're monitor is as close to my calibrated monitor as can be adjusted without a calibration tool.
