Adjusting JPEG Correction

Situations may arise where a JPEG correction should be applied. In the instance of very white or very dark cores, the TIFF images may look good but the JPEG images may look washed out or too dark to view details. JPEG corrections do not alter TIFF image settings. To apply a JPEG Correction follow the steps below:

1. Take the MacBeth Color Checker Standard and place on SHIL Imaging Track

2. Click Start in IMS
