Digital BW, The Print

Shilesh,

Only one of the curves is for grayscale file printing.  The others will be
the usual RGB files/curves.

I've found that some like to print from gs files -- makes for quick and easy
draft prints, among other things.  Also, on the 1290 it makes an impressive,
neutral print, even though there is no partitioning.

Paul

  Paul,

  Once again, you are performing a great service, at no cost to anyone.
  Q: What do you mean "no RGB conversion required"? Do you print from
  grayscale? Does this mean the curves are not partitioned? If so how
  does one get different tones? Thank you.
