Re: [QuadtoneRIP] File name for QTRGui for Mac?

2012-09-06 by Terry Ritz

There are some programs in the QuadtoneRIP directory to make curves and ICC's. To print however, you will first need to "install" the appropriate QTR printer and curves. There should be instructions on how to do this in the Documents sub folder. Then, you simply select it as a printer in Photoshop. The QTR printer name will start with "Quad". 

My apologies if the directory names are incorrect. I'm going from memory. 

Terry.
