Gamma correction. At one time Image Alchemy did not support gamma correction for CMYK files but it does now. Undercolor removal files are based on gamma correction values. Specifying a certain level of gamma correction is easier than using undercolor removal files. Devices such as the NovaJet series of plotters will benefit most from gamma correction. Good values to use are -Gi1.0 -Go1.6 for Photo Glossy paper and -Gi1.0 -Go1.8 for presentation bond.
