Also, rather than roughness, specular power is used, which has no |

Unlike other material types, total reflectance is the sum of |

diffuse and specular colors, and should be adjusted accordingly. |

Reasonable magnitudes for proportional spacing are |

.UL Spectrum |

| 1200 |

The spectrum primitive is the most basic type for introducing spectral |
| 1201 |
+ |
color to a material. |
| 1202 |
+ |
Since materials only provide RGB parameters, spectral patterns |
| 1203 |
+ |
are the only way to superimpose wavelength-dependent behavior. |

The first two real arguments indicate the limits of the covered |
| 1211 |
+ |
spectral range in nanometers. |
| 1212 |
+ |
Subsequent real values correspond to multipliers in each wavelength band, |
| 1213 |
+ |
where the first band goes from nmA to nmA+(nmB-nmA)/N, and N is the |
| 1214 |
+ |
number of bands (i.e., the number of real arguments minus 2). |
| 1215 |
+ |
The nmA wavelength may be greater or less than the nmB wavelength, |
| 1216 |
+ |
but they may not be equal, and their ordering must correspond to |
| 1217 |
+ |
the ordering of the spectral values. |
| 1218 |
+ |
A minimum of 3 values must be given, which would act |
| 1219 |
+ |
more or less the same as a constant RGB multiplier. |
| 1220 |
+ |
As with RGB values, spectral quantities normally range between 0 |
| 1221 |
+ |
and 1 at each wavelength, or average to 1.0 against a standard |
| 1222 |
+ |
sensitivity functions such as V(lambda). |
| 1223 |
+ |
The best results obtain when the spectral range and number |
| 1224 |
+ |
of samples match rendering options, though resampling will handle |
| 1225 |
+ |
any differences, zero-filling wavelenths outside the nmA to nmB |
| 1226 |
+ |
range. |
| 1227 |
+ |
A warning will be issued if the given wavelength range does not |
| 1228 |
+ |
adequately cover the visible spectrum. |

| 1232 |

The specfile primitive is equivalent to the spectrum type, but |
| 1233 |
+ |
the wavelength range and values are contained in a 1-dimensional |
| 1234 |
+ |
data file. |
| 1235 |
+ |
This may be a more convenient way to specify a spectral color, |
| 1236 |
+ |
especially one corresponding to a standard illuminant such as D65 |
| 1237 |
+ |
or a library of measured spectra. |

As with the spectrum type, rendering wavelengths outside the defined |

range will be zero-filled. |
| 1246 |

Unlike the spectrum type, the file may contain non-uniform samples. |

The specfunc primitive offers dynamic control over a spectral |
| 1251 |

pattern, similar to the colorfunc type. |

Like the spectrum primitive, the wavelength range is specified |
| 1259 |
+ |
in the first two real arguments, and additional real values are |
| 1260 |
+ |
accessible to the sval function. |
| 1261 |
+ |
This function is fed a wavelenth sample |
| 1262 |
+ |
between nmA and nmB as its only argument, |
| 1263 |
+ |
and it returns the corresponding spectral intensity. |
