EPS- and PDF-Files with halftone information according to Annex J of ISO 15775

Information is given about halftone definitions used to produce
the DIN-test charts no. 1, 2, 3 and 4 according to DIN 33866 in halftone technic.
Remark: The output of colour devices (copiers, scanners, printers) is influenced by the haltone definitions
used to produce halftone test charts. This happens for test charts with identical L*a*b*-data.
Therefore manufacturers of test charts must disclose their haltfone definitions used for production.
 Filename PS-file to produce "HalftoneType 3"-raster cells Remarks for halftone within PS-file

IEAJ011

PS-file producing a horizontal "HalftoneType 3"-raster cell with 16 steps in a 24x24-matrix

Simple PS-file for halftone raster-cell
introduction

IEAJ021

PS-file producing a vertical "HalftoneType 3"-raster cell with 64 steps in a 22x22-matrix

PS-file with basic information for the halftone
definition to produce the DIN 33 866 test charts

IEAJ031

 PS-file producing a diagonal "HalftoneType 3"-raster super cell with 256 steps in a 44x44-matrix

PS-file which produces the DIN-test chart 1
with a diagonal (45 degrees) super cell-raster definition on an image setter (3600dpi)

IEAJ041

PS-file producing a diagonal "HalftoneType 3"-raster super cell with 256 steps in a 44x44-matrix

PS-file which produces Picture B4 of ISO-test chart 2 with a diagonal (45 degrees) super cell-raster definition (Black separation)

IEAJ051

PS-file producing a vertical "HalftoneType 3"-raster super cell with 256 steps in a 44x44-matrix

 PS-file which produces Picture B4 of ISO-test chart 2 with a diagonal (135 degrees) super cell-raster definition (Cyan-blue separation)
The PS-file output is device dependent and possible on PS-printers of PS-level 2 or 3
with any device resolution (e. g. between 300 and 3600 dpi)

Remark: DIN-test charts 1 to 4 have pictures An, Bn, Ano (o=Offset), and Cn (n = 1 to 7)
ISO-test charts 1 to 4 ( or 5 to 8) have pictures An, Bn, Cn, and Dn (n = 1 to 7)

The file format of the files ISOFIn1 (n = 2, 4 to 9) is EPS (PostScript) and PDF (Portable Document).
One of this two formats can be used for output on any operating system (Mac, Windows, Unix),
and both on any monitor and on any printer either black and white or colour.

Two identical PostScript-files are presented with the file extensions ".TXT" and ".EPS".
The PDF-files are produced from EPS-files using the software Adobe Acrobat Distiller 3.0.
(It is not possible to include PS-file halftone information by the additional 2.1-compatibility option).

Remark for download of this page with the EPS-, TXT- and PDF-files
One can download this page and the corresponding EPS- and PDF-files to work offline with a Web-browser.
Restriction: For work on any platform (Mac, Windows 3.1, 95, NT, Unix)
the files must be downloaded with filenames in capital letters and in the same directory as this page
Use for this page the filename DE09 with the extension ".HTM" (Windows 3.1) and ".html "
for other platforms (Mac, Windows, Unix). There are no crosslinks to other Web-pages.

Remarks about the software "Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 and 2.1":
The output on any printer and monitor is usually dependend on both the PDF-file type, e. g. 3.0 or 2.1,
and the "Adobe Acrobat Reader (or Exchange)"-software used, e. g. 3.0 or 2.1.
The present version is recommended: the PDF-file type 3.0 and the software Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0

If the software "Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0" is not installed it may be downloaded
for any operating system from the Web-site: www.adobe.com.
This software exists license and charge free separately or as Netscape- or Microsoft-Browser-Plug-In.
If only the "Reader 2.1" is installed one may use the PDF-files specified as "Acrobat (3.0 and) 2.1".

Remarks about the PostScript (PS- or EPS-) source code files:
Identical PostScript source code is presented with the file extensions ".TXT "and ".EPS" twice.
One can read the source code automaticly as .TXT file by any Web-browser.
One can read the identical EPS-file- or PS-file-program code within a Web-browser
if one connects the file extensions ".EPS" or ".PS" with an editor of the operating system
(for Windows: e.g. "NotePad" for small and "WordPad" for large EPS- or PS-files)
(for Macintosh: e.g."Simple text" for small and "BBedit" for large EPS- or PS-files).

Any PS-printer interprets the "%!PS-" at the beginning of a file as as PS-file.
Any PS-Printer will produce identical output for both using "copy" (Windows) or "download" (Mac)
the PS-file to the PS-printer and independent of the file extension ".PS", ".EPS" or ".TXT".
Any Display-PostScript-system will produce identical output on any colour monitor
and independent of the file extension ".PS", ".EPS" or ".TXT"

Other Software for EPS-, PS- and PDF-files
There is other software which can read and transform EPS-, PS- and PDF-files
(unfortunately often not PostScript Level 2 and 3 with device independent colours)
Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Framemaker
The main program for any PostScript Level is Adobe Acrobat Distiller
which transforms any EPS- or PS-file to a PDF-file
(many options with different influence on colour output)

Remark: In a future step an ISO-standard process should make the output for CIELAB colors in the EPS-, PS- or PDF-files independent of colour device and software within 3 CIELAB units after calibration of the device!
