Clearly, I should have started from scratch and not used the print I
produced for profiling with a scanner.   Xrite provides two sizes, one
with 288 patches and the other with 918.  I think I may have to pay them
an additional $200 to get a key allowing me to use the larger size.  The
Argyll web page gives tables for other Gretag Macbeth instruments but
not for the Eye One Pro.   I am going to start off with 288 which is
what Xrite's Color Match would produce.  Any other suggestions would be
appreciated.

Sorry, that's an oversight. The table should contain:

  Eye-One Pro:

      1xA4       462
      2xA4       924
      3xA4       1386
      4xA4       1848

      1xLetter   462
      2xLetter   924
      3xLetter   1386
      4xLetter   1848

One minor comment,  '-ii1' doesn't seem to be listed as an argument in
the printtarg Usage summary on the web page, but it is mentioned in the
Scenarios section as an example of the use of the command for the Eye
One Pro. It is also listed as an option if one uses printtarg --help.

Yes, the documentation that was with Beta7 wasn't quite up to date
for that flag. It should be right next time.

Finally, for displaying the .ps file, I used the ImageMagick program
display.  Those programs are very powerful and easy to use on the
command line.

Can ImageMagick be used to render the .ps to a raster file, suitable
for printing ?
