Is there any way to generate the targets (i.e. 225 patch target) across 
several sheets of 4"x6" instead of on a single letter sized sheet?  
Basically I want larger individual patch sizes spread across more 
sheets.

The reason being that my final paper is 4x6 and I don't want to profile 
a different batch of paper or have to buy a pack of letter sized when I 
could just spread the targets across four 4x6 sheets...

Ideas?

Wow!  I just did that after your reply.  Turned out perfect.  You 
guys are great!

I would recommend updating the online help files to indicate this.  I 
read through the targets section and it didn't mention the smaller 
4x6 target options.

Thanks again!

I just started using Spyder3Print and have to say that you guys have 
developed a great product at a very reasonable price.

One question on "color managed".  How do I set the color management 
settings in Photoshop and the printer driver to do this.  I am assuming 
that I choose the media type in the driver and turn color management 
off it it.  From past comments I think I would set, in Photoshop, the 
renedering intent to saturation with black point compensation set on 
but what profile would I use?  Or do I turn color management off in 
BOTH the printer amd in Photoshop?

Thanks,
Rollin
