Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Will Mac curves work on a PC?

2005-10-10 by Carl Schofield

You can use the same curves on both Mac and PC. The .quad files are the same for both platforms, but the curve descriptor files have a special suffix on a PC (.qidf) and are just simple .txt files on a Mac.

I use a Mac at work and a PC at home and have QTR on both. The Mac has Hahnemuhle
curves on it but the PC version doesn't. Is it possible to use the Mac curves on the PC? I
expect not since thr program works very differently between the two platforms, not to
mention the differing OS's.

Just wondering.
