Re: [Digital BW] Re: Curves for papers not listed for QTRIP 2.2a

2005-03-09 by Carl Schofield

The .quad files are not ink descriptor files.  They are "compiled" 
curve files for printing.  I don't know what the folder hierarchy is on 
the PC, but they should be placed in the same folder with your other 
.quad files.
