It's OK but the gamma test swatch is suspect, down-load the "Gamagic" test patterns below as they are far better references, after I calibrate my screen using the hardware tool they all render perfectly, in fact I use the mid range one as a desk-top background tile so that I can tell when my monitor has fully warmed up. Repost follows: I've found a couple of pages that should provide a basic indication of your monitors state of calibration. The following page should show if the white and black levels are OK: http://www.ltlimagery.com/monitor_calibration.html#normankoren ...and the next page should give you an idea of the linearity and gamma point of your monitor (PCs should be g2.2 and Macs g1.8 by default) http://www.photoscientia.co.uk/Gamma.htm Click on the "Gamagic" test patterns down towards the end of the page.
