Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Error message installing curves

2012-09-01 by Roy Harrington

Hi Cort,

There's something wrong with the curve that you are installing.
I don't know where it came from or how it was made.  But if you
look at a .quad curve file in TextEdit you'll see that the first line should
have a list of the inks being used in the curve.  This is apparently not there.
