I did a quick search here but didn't find anything. Also looking online but not doing well. I KNOW I have one somewhere but the crappy search on the mac is being a special kind of crap today. It keeps flashing from giving results to going blank. This computer is possessed.

Anyone have a target they use to test plates? We are testing 2 new plates and I want a nice target. We're running a 25x38 sheet but I want some room to put some postcards we just printed for comparison.

More like something with facial tones and a bunch of CT examples. I don't think we are reading anything with the spectro, it's just to see how it compares to our existing plate.

I'm pissed because I know I have something but across the 5TB of storage damn if I can't find it. It's been years and years since we footprinted the press.

I don't miss footprinting a press one bit...   

Actually, I don't think I ever did anything other than match to color on my smart phone.  :sarcasm:

I have the 25 x 38 target, but was wondering if anyone has a GATF target that would fit on a smaller 29 inch press?
