Re: [Digital BW] Re: QTR--printing from Qimage

2005-04-04 by Diane Fields

Thanks Paul and Tom.  As I was using Qimage for some other printing this morning I was thinking just how others did it--and this was all I could come up with.  In fact, I was printing to file for ohter reasons.

I like the tip of printing to file to the desktop and then dragging it to QTR and then deleting the file easily.  One reason I have even considered Qimage is because it does a very good job of 'smart sharpening' and interpolating.  I normally use PKS but to use it with QTR  invoves a bit of rigamarole if I softproof with gray-LAB.  I'll have to try Qimage and see if it makes my workflow easier for QTR.

  The desktop method is cool because if you don't save your output files, you
  can just drag the file to the trash when you are done printing.  The other
  slight variation is to print to file by saving into the QTR GUI monitor
  folder and printing will start automatically.  The only irritating thing is
  that Qimage does not remember your output folder so you have to set it every
  time.
