Create a basic formula
1. Click on the symbol ”formulate” → ”Basic formula“
2. Firstly the guideline color has to be defined. Instead of measuring the color you can
load the color data via ”ColorNet“, ”Color Guide“ or „Lab entry“.
ColorNet is the connection between the various X-Rite-Applications (InkFormulation,
ColorQuality, Spectrophotometer). Saved colors can be exchanged via ColorNet.
You can enter the color data with defined colorimetrical terms via the Lab-Entry.
However this definition of the guideline color has the disadvantage that the
InkFormulation doesn’t experience any remission data but only the calculated color data.
Via “Color Guide” you can choose the Pantone coloring according to the substrate
(coated, uncoated, matte) and the lighting conditions (this button assumes that the color
guide libraries are provided).
