Yep, they're no good.

I can't tell (don't remember) what happened, but usually there is a
newer ICC for the paper that works. Since I see that one in my Print
Preview, the bad ones went un-noticed.  I'm guessing that I caught
the problem on 9/30 and re-did the ICCs that afternoon, but because I
used a slightly different name for at least some, they did not over-
write the bad ones, which ended up in the folder along with the good
ones.

Can you tell what would have caused the problem?

Comparing the good with the bad, it appears the same linearization
data was used.  So, that can be lifted out of the few bad ones where
there is no re-made working version to make working versions.  I'll
remove the bad ones from the Zip.

Mike, does your system see the working versions -- for example,
the "260-HahnemuhlePhotoRag" as opposed to the "260-Hahnemuhle-
PhotoRag" version?
