This has worked, but its not perfect. A good thing to come out of this is once you have that target from there system, you can compare it to say, TR001 data and show the client just how far off there proof is from a standard data set in delta E. :?
I lot of work on your part but I applaud you for this! It makes a lot of sense to help customers dial their process into yours.
