The Kodak Monitor Installer installs Kodak Precision Transforms, or device profiles, for use in color-managed applications that support the Kodak Precision Color Management System, such as Adobe PageMaker 6.0.
Double-click the Kodak Monitor Installer icon to launch the utility, and then scroll through the monitor list to select your monitor. If there is more than one white point setting, choose the one corresponding to the monitor's current setting. If you don't know your monitor's white point, use D9300. Click Install, and then skip to the next topic in this ReadMe, "Set Information Dialog Box."
If your manufacturer model is not displayed in the list, select one that is the closest to your monitor. For example, if you have an Apple 17" monitor, install the Apple 16" monitor.
If your manufacturer model is not displayed in the list, and you know the white point and phosphor values for your monitor, you can click New to create a new monitor definition. The Define New Monitor dialog box will be displayed; the Manufacturer Name and Model fields will be blank; the White Point and Phosphor values will be set to default values.
To edit an existing monitor definition, select the monitor from the Monitor list and click Edit. The Define New Monitor dialog box will be displayed. The current settings for Manufacturer Name, Model Name, White Point, and Phosphor will be used. The current definition will be replaced with the new one.
Click OK to accept the edits and return to the Main dialog box. Click Cancel to discard the edits and return to the Main dialog box.
SET INFORMATION DIALOG BOX
This dialog box is used to specify identifying information to be placed in the installed device profiles. The Description field contains the value that was entered the last time a device profile was installed. Type new information in this field to help identify your device profile.
The Manufacturer and Model fields contain the values for the selected monitor. While you can change these fields, generally they should be left unchanged.
Click OK. The device profiles will be installed and the program will quit. (Note that the OK button is not active, and cannot be pressed, if any of the fields are left blank.) Click Cancel to return to the Main dialog box without installing device profiles.
FILENAMES DIALOG BOX
This dialog box is used to specify the filenames for the installed INPUT and OUTPUT Monitor
Transforms. If you do not specify filenames, they will automatically be generated. If you wish to keep track of filenames for different monitor transforms, meaningful names may be selected in this dialog. Since two files are created, an input transform and an output transform, you will be asked for the two filenames (The dialog will appear twice, once for INPUT, once for OUTPUT). The names for these two files must be different.
