# Gateway Barbieri

All the process is based on importing/exporting data through the CGATS file format.

### 1. Create your chart

{% hint style="info" %}
You don't need to create a new chart with "Chart Generator" each time you have to use Gateway. You can use always the same chart.But il should be interesting to create four different chart with their data

* RGB Calibration chart
* RGB Characterization chart
* CMYK Calibration chart
* CMYK Characterization chart
  {% endhint %}

On Coraye create your target following the process described [in Creating a media profile](https://coraye.gitbook.io/coraye-documentation/printer-management/how-to-create-a-media-profile). But this time, instead of directly clicking on "**Next**" button, click on "**Export Barbieri**".

{% content-ref url="/pages/-LjRTIyoM9ZfJ\_hs62lH" %}
[Create a profile from a standard reference](/printer-management/how-to-create-a-media-profile.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

{% content-ref url="/pages/-LjWdPYRhFiZLP5nG3kG" %}
[Create a profil from a calibration](/printer-management/create-a-profil-from-a-calibration.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

![Export the created chart with the Barbierie option](/files/-LjRU4HPsyPod92cmrH8)

You should then have a ti1 file that is indeed a CGATS file. You can rename it to **.txt** instead of **.ti1**.

* CMYK Calibration chart
* CMYK Characterization chart
  {% endhint %}

![](/files/-LjWcMEZOLv1sFv1Jscj)

Click on the "Customised" folder

![](/files/-LjWcPOIjzzpPvOcSyH4)
