Thanks,
I get this error message:

The whole process:

Does this mean anything to you?

Hi,
So, Im struggling to use CoCa with Linux. Im able to run the Python script,
but it
fails because there is no .ti3 file (as far as I can understand).
a step has been missed then. The steps in creating an input profile are:
1. Use scanin to get the scan raster values using a .cht file that specifies
the layout and a CIE reference file that specifies the patch color values
and spit out a .ti3 file.
2. Use colprof to convert the .ti3 file into an ICC profile.
I do have Scanin and I've been trying to run some of these commands:
https://www.argyllcms.com/doc/scanin.html
But as I dont really know what Im doing it isnt working out. I was able to
create a
.cht file, but I'm not really sure if Im supposed to use the one I created
or the one
called it8.cht in the /argyll/ref/ folder.
If you are using a known chart, use a supplied matching .cht file. Creating a
.cht
file takes a good understanding of what you are doing and is only needed if
you
are using a custom or unknown chart.
See https://www.argyllcms.com/doc/Scenarios.html#PS1 for a guide
on how to create a scanner profile.
Hope that helps,
Graeme Gill.
