These commands are available only in the Expert Calibration 
user mode.  Refer to page 2-9 for instructions on selecting 
this user mode.  
Dot Gain
Dot Gain is the amount a halftone dot increases in size when 
printed, due to the characteristics of the paper, inks, and printing 
press used.  The Dot Gain dialog box allows you to change the 
percentage of dot gain for a profile to better match a specific 
printing press.       
Profile Curves
Curves provide a more visual representation of color or dot 
percentages.  The Profile Curves dialog box allows you to modify 
a profile to match a specific printing press, then save the profile for 
use in the Tektronix driver.    
Densitometry
Densitometry requires a reflective densitometer to measure the 
densities and dot percentages of each ink color.  The Densitometry 
dialog box allows you to create an edited profile that attempts to 
match the density values on a specific Phaser printer to the density 
values of the target press.    
Paper Color
Paper Color is the background color of the paper you are going to 
print on.  The Paper Color dialog box allows you to compensate 
for printing on white and off-white papers by creating a 
background color for a specific profile.
