Well this is a way to try now. I do not have a description file of the chart I 
use (Macbeth Colorchecker, not the one included) and tried to write the two 
files (.cht and .txt for the actual values). I did not get what to write in the 
XLIST / YLIST definitions. I just do not understand the documentation of the 
cht-format here. The reference edges - is it the borders between the color 
patches? The chart has 6x4 patches, so should I write the centerline of the 5 
vertical and 3 horizontal edges here?

I do not expect wonders. The problem is that we currently have to correct our 
prints by looking at the printouts and changing the color (RGB)on screen, and 
repeat this any time we print on another paper. We do not need perfectly 
matching colors, but if yellow looks orange or grey is not neutral, than I 
would like to have some matching routine for each printer/paper combination 
rather than going through the color editor for every color used in the 
application again and again. That's why I wrote "basic" - I know the routine 
and effort to get a real color-matching environment.

Thank You! Lars.
