Digital BW, The Print

Well, that's the problem... I can't see the curve, ie the .ACV file. I made the information text message invisible, clicking on the "eye". I was hoping to see the curve, but all I see is a kind of checkerboard.

Maybe I'd need to look at it in full Photoshop, not Elements. A friend of who has full PS is going to look at it for me.

Don't worry about it too much... I'll just use the Grants Tools curve plug-in as best I can... was just looking for a little comparison.

Thanks!

Paul
