Tom, I appreciate all your help.  Without your tutorial I don't 
think I would have even attempted to use QTR at all.  Since I am 
redoing a curve (and starting a new one) I am going to try the 
pickier method of comparing the lighter inks at 85% to the K at 65% 
and see what happens.  It may not make a bit of difference.  I just 
completed my first step wedge, will let it dry, then will try 
linearization and see how it goes.

Thanks again,
Jenny
