Digital BW, The Print

apologies if this hs been covered before.

in the qtr dialogue we have a curve 1 and a curve 2 option. can someone explain why we 
have 2 options? the documentation says that they 'are exactly the same' (as the previous 
version of qtr)

thanks in advance

steve

Steve,

I'm new to QTR as well, but my understanding is that the two curves can be 
blended to create intermediate tones: eg - a warm curve in curve 1, and a cool 
curve in curve 2. Or a sepia curve in curve 1, and a neutral curve in curve 2, 
etc.

Lower down in the print dialog you will see an option for how much of each 
curve to use in the blend: eg - curve 1=25%, and curve 2=75% for a slighty 
warmer print.

Hope this helps.
