When you open the curve in the Curve Creator you can hit "Show Curve" and see the graph of the various ink curves. From this you can simply transfer the graph plots to the point list. You can use a screen grabber to capture the curve and print it. The curves in the final "Show Curve" graph are shown after the ink limits are applied. You can change those ink limits to 100 to expand the curve and get a better idea of the points. You can still apply the previous ink limits to the Point List curve when done. I tend to always use the Points List so that I and others can see what is going on and easily transfer the curve to another profile or ink, or make small changes. Although the linearization step is wonderful, I still think a fairly smooth curve going into that step results in a better profile. Hope this helps.
