Setting up a video projector isn’t as easy as you first may think. Leaving the settings on the default values may not give you the best image possible.
By using Test Patterns along with the colour/brightness/contrast and other settings on your projector will give you best results. We have created a PowerPoint file with 32 test patterns that will help you calibrate your video projector…

These have been useful to me when setting up and aligning projectors, that are given on that basis – nothing more – I don’t garantee that it will help, these are not ‘prefessionaly’ created – but in using PowerPoint – they are as flexible as possible and by using powerpoint it’s simple and easy for any one to use! 
Test Patterns
There are lots of familiar test patter screens – colour bars etc – as well as screens to help centre and align your screen.
There are individual colour screens – White, red, green, blue, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black – these are there to help spot duff pixels and ensure an even colour spread.
There are a couple of greyscale screens to help set up the contrast and brightness of the projector correctly, as well as photos to help ensure skin tone looks as best as possible. There is a slides with different text sizes so you can easily figure out what font size works best on your screen, a colour hues screen to check clarity of colour etc… – oh, and a freaky brain-animation at the end, just for fun!
