... The calibration of astrophysical spectra in wavelength based on calibration lamp data suffers from different kinds of uncertainties. Besides inaccuracies in the observational phase, common data reduction practice adds ``pixelation'' errors, due to the fact that the centering method does not use the correct PSF. These model mismatch errors depend, for a given feature, on the sub-pixel location of the line center (David & Verschueren, private communication). ...
