This paper deals with the calibration of Stromgren photometry for the A and early F supergiants. We derive a gravity parameter which can be used to separate photometrically supergiants of different luminosity classes. It is used in conjunction to derive a simple calibration which gives the intrinsic color, of the supergiant. This calibration is tested and compared with other reddening estimates for A and F supergiants in the literature. Finally, we derive a semiempirical effective temperature calibration for the A and F supergiants.
