Digital BW, The Print

Hi Paul, this is very interesting.  

For others who want to experiment can you shed any light onto how 
you generate the point list which use use to create the curves?  
It's quite precise.

Is the goal of the curve to get the ink tone and smoothness right 
and then to correct the ramp by linearizing it?
Thanks,
Roger
