Re: [PEDA] Monitor focusing.
Nice patterns! thanks... Also, don't forget convergence patterns. I have one that's the typical white crosshatch/dots on a black background I can send for you to post.

Re: [PEDA] Monitor focusing.
These patterns will be great for calibrating my home made, super economy, 9 Million pixel video camera. I'll just get them printed on 3500dpi film at 22x34inch (movie poster size) as a target. Thanks a million. I was originally going to draw out similar patters by hand in Photoshop.

Re: [PEDA] Monitor focusing.
I really interested, My email is [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the past, I had problems with Acrobat test patterns, because of the rendering originally didn't offer the finest 1:1 dot grid pattern from corner to middle to corner. I'm hoping the situation has improved. Originally, my 'Align_CHECfocus.png' , adjusted for that you get the strongest moir pattern balanced throughout the screen was the best solution, except, when calibrating 37 inch & 42 inch screens, you could not make out the pattern from the distance created by the mirror...

Re: [PEDA] Monitor focusing.
Brian, Now that I understand your motivation for the original post, maybe I can offer further test patterns. I have scaleable resolution charts in pdf format that, when viewed in full screen mode (in Acrobat Reader) allow you to determine your monitor's finest resolution visually. Since the graphics are determined through an equation instead of a bitmap, it scales to any screen resolution. And they don't hurt your eyes like the ones you were promoting (ouch, I still have a headache). If you're interested, I can email them.

Re: [PEDA] Monitor focusing.
A few months ago, the issue came up with aging CRT monitors, & new monitors which were out of focus. For those of us with experience, we would open up our monitors & adjust the focus controls on the HV Flyback picture tube power supply. When this issue came up, I offered my original focusing images which consisted of the finest possible checker board B&W pattern. Now, unless your monitor has a fussy picture & you are willing to void the warranty & risk exposure to dangerous electrical voltages, I do not recommend playing with the focus. If you know what you are doing, just view the tiled image on your monitor, at 1 standard video mode lower than the listed resolution your monitor was designed for, & calibrate the focus. If your screen is currently fuzzy, you will probably get a vast improvement. I also recommend using my original checkerboard pattern in conjunction with this new one.
