Digital BW, The Print

I work on the B&W negatives as a positive on screen. I set up my black
point, white point, set curves, and scan as a RAW and as a TIF. The RAW is
opened in LR and adjusted. I see no reason to work the scan as a negative.
The presets that were mentioned are developing presets; CI. That might not
mean much to you unless that is the way you originally worked with film. 

 

Keep the exposure based on not losing what you want to keep; shadows or
highlights.

For those who use Viewscan to scan negatives to raw files, how do you then
do the inversion to positives.
The inbuilt Photoshop is just a linear inversion. Do you use a curve that is
similar to the film sensitivity curves?
