Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Headaches on Mac

2013-08-01 by Paul Roark

Below, I've pasted some QTR forum comments on point.

But first, the Windows Gui for the Curve Creator is so good, I have to
wonder if there isn't a practical way to have a Windows partition and clone
or emulator that allows you to take advantage of the Win GUI's.  Roy is a
Mac (actually Linux background) programmer.  He doesn't do Win GUI's.  The
Mac side, however, in my view is something only a programmer can
appreciate.  I like my graphical user interfaces.  (Ironic that the Win
side ended up with the GUI here and not the Mac side)

At any rate, it also sounds like you can use the *.quad files that are
generated, but since my crash, most of what I have are the *.qidf files.

Got to go.  Here are the QTR comments.
