Dear All

Did try to create profile for custom illumination:
- Measured light with I1 with special diffuser; Got measurements in cxf
format (file attached)
- Made a profile with Profile Maker White point looks good
- Copied spectral values to ref. D50_1.5.sp file and renamed DalTile...
(file attached)
- made a profile ./colprof -v -i
/Applications/Argyll_V1.1.0/ref/DalTileLichtI1.sp -kp 0 .3 1 1 .8 -r 2 -L
100 -l 280 G60_G07_5c

White point calculated by Argyll is fare off from the real.
Visually it does not correspond at all.
PM white point: Lab 87 0 2
Argyll white point: Lab 88 5 30

I also tried to interpolate the spectral values to get 5 nm steps from 370
to 730 but did not change anything.

Why this big difference?
What means Spectral_Norm in the Spectral illumination file?

Thanks for any help
