RE: [Digital BW] UT2 1280 Curves/Paul Roark

2004-02-29 by Paul Roark

Bob,

So true.  EEM was the first one I did, and it didn't need any other points
on the main curves, as I recall.  Subsequently I found the shadows below 75%
often needed some points.  I should modify the Readme to reflect this.

What I've tried to do is hold the points down in the midtones, which is
where the tones show the most.  The idea is to make it easy for everyone to
slightly modify the curves/tones by making offsetting moves of the red and
green points.  In the shadows where there are points on some curves, this
works to a certain extent also, and visual inspection of a 21-step file
print will, I think, be easy enough to get those areas under control.

Paul,
Page 6 of your http://home1.gte.net/res09aij/UT2-Readme.htm indicates 
that the red and green curves have only 3 internal points on them. 
But the curves I've used (Prem Semi Gloss for Eboni & Photo Black) 
have many points on them. Am I missing something?

Thanks, 
Bob
