13 ColorAnt Measurement Data Report Page CMYK Distribution This diagram shows the distribution of the CMYK patches. The dots show CMYK combinations ordered by black (x axis) and TAC of CMY (y axis). A good, generic testchart should have colors on all edges. The patches should be distributed evenly, typically with less patches on the right side (high black amount). There shouldn't be large holes, because this limits the flexibility for different separation methods. 3% CMY % % K 1% This diagram shows the number of CMYK patches (y axis) for different black levels (x axis).
