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

2005-03-09 by Stephen Billard

The error reported is from an ink description file with something wrong in it.
In this case, the "O" which is not a valid item in a QIDF file. 

If the file you have is a .QUAD file, then it is already a curve and as Walt
said, just put in the folder with the rest of the QUAD files. If it is a QIDF,
then it needs to be "compiled" by the curve generator. Since you are getting an
error, there is something amiss with the file.
