QTR-Quadtone RIP

Roy-
Thanks for the response and, again, congratulations on this wonderful 
piece of work.

The documentation now calls for BPC checked in both the workflow and 
softproof and I am now doing that for the first time.  I see smoother 
transistions and better detail in the shadows than without the BPC 
checked--slight but clear.  I used the same MT files, so that's not 
the issue.

On the highlights and color, I find that about perfect on my 
monitor.  Using ABW "neutral" settings the effect of the paper is 
clear and very useful.

In Soft Proof, I have the "Simulate Paper White" and "Ink Black" both 
turned off--they ruin the good preview and seem way out of range to 
me.

Thanks,
Walt
