3.9 Software module: Media Wedge
The program module Media Wedge serves the fast, colorimetric analysis of the Ugra /
Fogra Media Wedge. This digital control element is available from Fogra, the Ger-
man “Graphic Technology Research Association” (www.fogra.org). The test element
is placed at the border of a proof. The software evaluates the color quality printed in
colorimetric terms.
Color dierences between the Fogra target values and the measured samples will be
clearly represented in this program module.
The software module Media Wedge is only available in the SpectroDens Premium
version.

sion. (You will nd the version number on the

dia wedge feature within the device as well.
Measurements can be made remotely with-
