Using the Color Meter Display
The Color Meter Display is useful if you wish to adjust the
shadow and highlight points of an image.
As you pass over a point in the image, the Color Meter
Display will show the appropriate RGB values of that point in
the image. The significance of the numbers is explained
below.
• The numbers in the Color Meter Display represent color
information taken by the scanner. The values can be
anywhere from 0 to 255, with 0 as the black point, 255 as
pure white, and all other values in between correspond-
ing to shades from black to white.
• The values as a whole represent color information for the
sample size selected in the Sample Size button (discussed
below). For instance, if you chose 3 x 3 as your sample
size and your R value reads 23, that shows your red value
of 23 is the average of a 3-pixel by 3-pixel area.
The numbers in the Color
Meter Display represent
color information.
The numbers can be from
0 to 255, with 0 as the
black point, 255 as white,
and all values in between
