Hoecker-Plot (Beta)

A Hoecker-Plot is a fast graphical evaluation for digital proofs based on CIEDE2000 color difference formula.
A Hoecker-Plot consists of 4 boxes of typically different dimensions and colors (white, lightgray, darkgray and black).

The vertical boundaries of each box relate to some statistical information gathered from a set of color differences. The dimensions (areas) of the boxes depend on the number of color differences that fall in between two vertical boundaries. The different box colors are primarily for better distinction.

In general a completely green background is a good sign indicating that there should be no or only little need to worry about the proof quality. A green and red background alerts the user to pay attention and have a closer look at the plot characteristics (see the manual for more information).
