Tonal Steps Evaluation - Beta 2015
 Testform to check the integrity of live transparency when retargeting is applied.
For each blend mode three CMYK combinations have been designed to test colour differences after a trans-
formation (re-targeting or re-purposing) from the reference printing condition FOGRA39. A reference rende-
When quality | matters ring (CMYK raster with black stroke) has been placed underneath each blend mode to facilitate easy compari-
son. If the live and references image (as used by Altona Test Suite) don‘t match - please check your RIP settings.

More information and corrective action can be found in PSD chapter 3. Inspired by Nils Niggemann
