Certifi Pedigree® Profile Builder

Profile Builder

Certifi Pedigree® Profile Builder allows you to build and save quality profiles that are used to determine if an image has acceptable quality. Different quality profiles can be created for different applications, such as master files and derivative files. A quality profile is a set of lower and upper limits for each quality metric iused in your quality analysis. During image quality analysis, a quality metric is evaluated to see if its value is between the lower and upper limits. If it is, the quality metric is within specifications.




Pre-defined quality profiles

Certifi Pedigree® Q and Certifi Pedigree® QP come with four pre-defined quality profiles as starting points for developing other quality profiles. The profiles are:

  • " IQ_noLimits": Wide-open quality limits that will be met by any image
  • "IQ_300dpi_NARA_derived ": A high-quality 300 dpi profile that is derived from the NARA quality guidelines (June 2004).
  •  "IQ_400dpi_NARA_derived": A high-quality 400 dpi profile that is derived from the NARA quality guidelines (June 2004).
  • " IQ_300dpi_Metamorfoze_derived": A high-quality 300 dpi profile that is derived from the Metamorfoze quality guidelines (June 2007)

More information about these quality guidelines and how Certifi quality profiles were derived from them can be found in the Certifi technical paper entitled "Quality Profiles Derived from NARA and Metamorfoze Guidelines"
