Hi Robert,

In general I do think the 205 coating is a little different than the 
270 & 325.  So, a re-linearization would be a good idea. 

With my 1800 3-MK profiles in QTR you can see the differences I 
measured in all the papers profiled.  In the Curve Creation boxes you 
can see the different ink limits (on the curves, not the boxes for 
that purpose), and the linearizaion tables tell you the dmax (read 
immediatly after use of a hair drier, so they may go up a bit 
overnight).  The 205 and 325 show different numbers in each of these 
areas.  The 205 dmax was L=16.95, and the 325 was L=16.02.  The 205 
actually has a higher ink limit (takes more ink to reach its lower 
dmax).
