Digital BW, The Print

Roy and I have talked about including the OVI profiles as part of the QTR
setup, but for now OVI supplies them. They are somewhat unusual and
difficult to make but they're not really non-standard - they install and run
like any others. I have a lot of them covered, but I'm still developing
printer/paper/print color profiles. I'm also issuing the occasional update
and modifications at the request of clients. Even if Roy did include them,
right now I'd be driving him nuts - and he's too sweet of a guy to torment
like that.
 
Cheers,
 
Tom

Sorry I can't help, as I have neither a Mac system nor the OVI inks or 
profiles, however you may be best served by asking OVI for support, if 
you haven't already. As far as I can see QTR doesn't normally come with 
profiles for the OVI inks. If the QTR manual was supplied by OVI, they 
may in addition be using QTR in a non-standard fashion. If you're using 
the QTR profiles supplied for the ultrachrome inks, these use mostly the 
3 monochrome inks MK(PK), LK and LLK, and only a small amount of the 
other colours, so may not show much variation with the OVI inks.

Just editting the qidf file won't have any effect - it is a more human 
readable (and editable) file that needs to be compiled into the machine 
readable quad file that the qtr driver actually uses. That's why it 
needs to be 'installed'.
