Digital BW, The Print

Sorry, the ReadMe discusses warm, cool and sepia.  What are the CoolSe
profiles?  I apologise if these are really dumb questions but I prefer not
to guess...

(I also assume the EEM, OFB and PFA profiles on your download page are the
same as those that come with the install package from Roy¹s site.)

Thanks, I will take a look at the ReadMe.  I am puzzled by your last
sentence because they exist in the original CurveDropBox folder downloaded
from Roy's site and the new CurveDesign folder replaced the old one. I am
afraid it may take me some time to come up to speed with the notion of
checking partitioning and re-linearizing although I have to get into this
soon! (I guess the old profiles are now not much good with the new QTR
version? I am currently mostly using HPR.)

One last question: with all the discussion about Eboni black I am wondering
if there would be considerable benefit to using it instead of the Epson
Ultrachrome Matt Black cartridges - ie making a simple, small step to better
B&W by upgrading one ink and still using the other Epson Ultrachromes and
QTR.  Given Ebony is priced at a healthy premium to Epson UC Matt Black (vs
Atlex.com pricing) the difference had better be more than fussing at the
margin.  Any thoughts?  (My assumption would be to use Ebony for matt colour
work also - ie simply purchase Ebony from now on vs UC matt black.)

Cheers

Steve
