i1Profiler version 1.1.1 now available

X-Rite just released version 1.1.1 of i1Profiler on June 28th. This version has a few improvements in how it performs monitor calibrations:
  • You can choose between small (119), medium (220) and large (478) patch sets when doing advanced display calibration.
  • You can now specify a contrast ratio in order for the display to match the ICC standard PCS black point (287:1).
  • You can now use the contrast ratio of a printer profile as the target contrast ratio for a display profile.
  • They've made miscellaneous bug fixes that seems to be making the whole program more stable according to early reports from users.

Besides the new features, X-Rite is also reporting a list of known issues and important points to be aware of. Every user of i1profiler would find this well worth reading:
