Digital BW, The Print

Steve,

If you installed QTR beta9 over the existing beta8 and had profiles  
already installed in beta8 the old profiles will still be in your  
CurveDropBox folder.  If the new profiles that you installed with beta9  
have the same names as the old ones the old ones would be overwritten  
with the new profiles.  Since HPR was not included in beta9, what you  
see in your CurveDropBox folder is the old HPR profile.  I have a new  
batch of HPR coming next week and will try to get a new profile  
uploaded.

I don't think you would see much difference between MK and Eboni,  
unless you are doing BO printing.
