Profiler
User Manual
16-BIT LUT-based
In this profile type, the gamut of a device will be described in a table of a
defined number of points. All other color values will be interpolated. This
allows to describe non-linear behavior of a device. The size of a LOUT
profile can be some- where between 200 KB and more than 2 MB.
With 16 bit encoding, the accuracy of a LUT profile will be increased
dramatically (256 times more accurate), while the size only doubles.
That's why SpectraView Profiler offers 16 bit LUT profiles only.
