ABSTRACT
It is important to realize that every printing process distorts the starting image to a different degree and therefore requires a different correction curve. A good correction curve will be specific to one set of printing conditions — exposure time, emulsion chemistry, paper substrate, developer, and so forth. Hopefully, the correction curves we offer in this book will get you in the ballpark and allow you to make a reasonable print, but you should get comfortable with creating correction curves yourself so that you can use one that is tailored exactly to your own printing conditions.
