Digital BW, The Print

Peter,

They are are actually in Photoshop. Image>Mode>Duotone> 

This takes you to a Duotone Options box.

Then choose either Duotone, Tritone or Quadtone. Try Quadtone. Then 
select "Load" and you will be taken to a choice of different file 
folers containing a variety of curves. I would start with the 
Grayscale curves.

Also checkout:

For a nice tutorial on this.

There is also a chapter in Photoshop 5 & 5.5 Artistry by Barry Haynes 
with his curve. I believe there is now a Photoshop 6 version but I 
haven't seen it.

Hope that at least gives you a starting point but keep in mind that 
color calibration of the monitor and monitor to printer is vital to 
success in doing this.

Anyone else have a source for additional curves or some curves of 
their own they would like to share?
