Re: Eboni Variable Tone updates

Thanks, Paul, found it right away.

I'm trying to learn the language of qidf files. Take these two:

STSeb6-Pa325

and

STSeb6-Pa325-CK-Yt

So, Pa (or PA, not case sensitive I assume) is Premier Art, that's easy. I assume the second file allows the use of the Y position for the blue/cyan dilution. But what do CK and Yt stand for? Cyan and Yellow, for starters? Is black, t is toner? And when I look at the text file, I don't see anything in the 2,3 and 4 GREY positions. Are they "unused", ie left empty, in the setup?

Finally, I don't see such a qidf for the 205 weight paper. Can I create one using STSeb6-Pa325 as a model?

Bear with me!

Paul W.
