Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: QTR Linearizing of Quad files -- K7 Piezo and regular curves

Hi William,

You need to select both the .quad and the .txt files. Then drag
them both at the same time to the .exe program.

Dear Roy,

I am trying to use your QTR-linearize-Quad.exe program but I do not end up with the (Quad Curve)-lin.quad file that I expected.

I am doing the following: I place your program in the Eye-one folder. I drag the quad file that I want to re-linearize onto your program then I drag the linearization text file (lin.txt) onto your program which generates a file called lin-out.txt which looks like this:

QTR-Linearize-Quad version 2.7.6.0

Finally got the PC version going. You need to put the .exe file in the same
folder with all the .exe's like QTR-Linearize-Data.exe -- its the QuadToneRIP\Eye-One\ folder.
You can grab the two files (.quad and .txt) from anywhere on disk.

There seems to be a fair amount of interest in re-linearizing existing .quad curves.
So looked into it and created a new droplet program QTR-Linearize-Quad that does this.
The droplet takes two files -- a .quad file that you wish to re-linearize and a
measurement file i.e. .txt file like the usual QTR-Linearize-Data takes.
This is basically equivalent to adding a LINEARIZE line to a curve descriptor file.
The output .quad file will have the same name with "-lin" appended to curve name.

This gives you the capability of linearizing Piezo .quad files and also allowing a
second linearizing of the standard curves -- i.e. you can have a linearized curve
but fine-tune the linearize with a second one.

The plan is for this in the next version but I currently have a Mac version that
can be tried out. Here's a link to the droplet application:


Comments welcome.
