The New York Times inputs
densitometer data to Excel using WinWedge(SoftwareWedge for Windows)
To meet the needs of readers and
advertisers, the New York Times insures not only quality editorial,
but also quality production by enforcing high levels of quality
control throughout all stages of production. This control extends
right down to the inks used, as these are rigorously tested and
evaluated in their own laboratories.
Quality Assurance - Ink Density
Measurement
An X-Rite 400 Reflection Densitometer
is used to measure the density of ink printed on a newspaper as part
of the meticulous quality assurance testing performed at the New
York Times. The densitometer measures the reflection of light off
sample black ink areas and these readings are input via the
SoftwareWedge for Windows standard version (WinWedge) directly into
a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. The data readings are automatically
graphed in Excel to show the highs and lows. Statistical analysis is
performed using Excel to determine if the measured ink densities
fall within an acceptable range. Ink "rub-off" quality control tests
are also performed with densitometer readings taken before and after
the ink has been rubbed with a weighted tissue. WinWedge eliminates
the need for slow, error-prone manual data entry of densitometer
readings into Excel greatly increasing the speed, accuracy and
efficiency of the process. Hence WinWedge assists the quality
control technicians to assure that the inks used are fit to print "All
the News That's Fit to Print".
