QTR-Quadtone RIP

Here are the possible options I know of:

	BabelColor PatchTool (PatchReader tool)
		pros: patch reading, and lots of other useful color-related stuff
		cons: expensive at $125
		http://www.babelcolor.com/

	X-Rite ColorPort
		pros: free
		cons: requires generation of target (grid); might be hard to integrate with QTR workflow
		info: http://www.xrite.com/colorport-utility-software
		download: http://www.xrite.com/product_overview.aspx?ID=719&Action=support&SoftwareID=1168

	Argyll CMS (spotread tool)
		pros: free
		cons: command-line only, with the usual obtuseness
		http://www.argyllcms.com/

Argyll has some real potential. I played around with it last year to see if I could get it to generate & read targets for QTR, but got busy with other things.

Which spectro device do you have?
