Saint John, Canada's oldest incorporated city comes alive with colour and excitement as Festival by the Sea, one of Canada's foremost national performing arts festivals, presents seven days of sensational entertainment in celebration of Canada's rich culture and heritage. Festival by the Sea originated as the cultural component of the Canada Games in 1985. This event included many fine facilities devoted to the athletes but perhaps more importantly, created an environment where people came to believe and expect that Saint John could produce and support excellence. The first edition of Festival by the Sea was the brainchild of Walter Ball, a well known local educator and musician.

For printers, the test patern is a uniform sampling of overprinted CMYK [cyan, magenta, yellow, and black] tints that are imaged using the output device. The patches are measured, and the resulting colorimetric data is calculated into colour space information for that specific printer, as it related to the CIE XYZ or CIELAB colour space. This information becomes the central component in the printer's custom profile.

OBS

CIE refers to Commission internationale de l’éclairage (International Lighting Commission).
