This is used for simulating press output and should be used with a press target. You can

Gain in the text box(es). The valid values for North American gain at 50% input are
0%-50% output. The valid values for European at 40% input are 0%-60% gain on

If you use Dot Gain values, the curve is smoothed so that there are no spikes or jumps
in output value.
You will need to measure this value with a densitometer.
