Re: [Digital BW] "The Lab values are not in order..." error

The values were originally formatted per your instructions, Paul. The formatting gets all 
funny when I copy and past into my post.

Let me try again without copying and pasting.

I created two columns, seperated by tabs, like this:

Gray     Lab_L
0         95
5         89
10        85
15        81
20        77
25        74
30        70.5
35        67
40        65
45        62
50        59
55        56
60        54
65        51
70        47
75        44
80        40
85        37
90        30
95        23
100       14

Hope that comes across properly in the post.

Some particulars: I'm using QTR-Create-ICC version 2.4.2.0 running on a Mac in OSX 
10.4.8. I'm creating the text file in Text Edit as an RTF file.

It's odd that Jeff had no issues when he copied my data into a new test file. Could it be that 
my file is an RTF file as opposed to a .txt file???

Thanks to all for the support!
