Re: [Digital BW] QuadToneRIP and Qimage and LittleCMS

2005-02-18 by ferdinand_paris

I'm fairly sure that they've all changed.  The file sizes for all 6
are larger than before.  As I understand it, part of the collaboration
was some advice that Roy got from Mike Chaney (Qimage) about how to
create the profiles in a way that maximised their compatibility with
various programs and standards.

I'm printing some more test results as I type, trying out various
workflows with the new profiles, and so far I'm getting even more
WYSIWYG results than before, with better shadow separation. But I will
have a few questions ...
