Re: [Digital BW] QTR-ICC is Lr4

2012-12-09 by remononaz1

No, if I open an ICC with Notepad, I get a bunch of gibberish. I recreated the ICC I was using without too much trouble using the Create ICC-RGB tool and it works fine in Lr. 

I'm taking some advise I saw in one of your write ups and deleting the desktop short cut for the plain Create ICC. I'll use the Create ICC-RGB for all ICCs from now on. 

BTW, I think I may have sorted out my issues with creating an ICC with a curve. It involves the use of the Q13 scale for calibration. I'll make a separate post after I work with it some more.
