Test Chart

Scanner Evaluation Test Chart (Compliant with ISO 12653-3)

International standard-based test charts suitable for confirming the National Tax Agency's scanner preservation requirements. In addition to clarifying the confirmation of digitization work results with the resolution chart and text chart, color density chart, etc., these also enable the detection of any evidence of tampering.

Both monochrome and color documents can be checked with a single test chart. The color chart and color image are included in one test chart. The use of the chart for both monochrome and color documents can boost work efficiency dramatically. One-side or two-side test charts are available for two-sided prints.

A simultaneous two-sided scan can be evaluated, thus improving work efficiency and evaluation accuracy. At the same time, the evaluation of "bleed-through" is also possible.

The quality of kanji and other double-byte characters can be determined easily. JIIMA has submitted its international proposal regarding the chart for its use in determining character quality for Japanese kanji, simplified Chinese, Hangul and other double-byte structures, which has been officially approved by ISO.


Test Chart for Digitizing Images (Compliant with JIS Z 6014)

This test chart for digitized images is compliant with JIS Z 6014.

This can be used to check the quality of each device in the analog-to-digital micro image conversion system and image reproducibility. For details, please refer to Pages 31-38 of the June 1998 issue of IM.

This can also be used for the evaluation of facsimile systems and copier equipment.

  • Film-Type Test Chart (for Photography in 16mm Microfilm with Reel Cartridge)
  • Paper Test Chart (A4 Size; Printing on High-Quality Coated Paper)


Test Chart A for Microfilm Photo Resolution Capability; JIS Z 6008 Test Chart A (Formerly the JAMA Test Chart)

Test Chart for Rotary Microfilm in a Camera (JIS Z 6011; A3 Size; High-Quality Coated Paper)

The size of the test chart is A3; however, it can be used for A4 and B4 sizes by cutting along the horizontal and vertical cut lines.


JIS-Standard Reflectors (Set of 6% and 50% Reflectors)

These reflectors satisfy the provisions of JIS Z 7187-1997 (16mm and 35mm silver-gelatin microfilm operating procedures) and JIS Z 6008-1982 (a resolution test chart for microfilming, along with its description and use). Included are a 100 mm ×100 mm square; one reflector with a 6% reflection rate and another with a 50% rate.
