Re: Lightroom and QTR for Windows -- advice for an export for QTR strategy
2016-02-21 by paulmwhiting@...
This thread may have come to an end, but I wonder if this might help:
There's apparently a group of folks who use Lightroom and Photoshop Elements. One reason they like Lightroom is that it's easier to organize files than PSE's Organizer. I think you said you don't have nor want to have PS or CSuite. Elements is a lot cheaper and can do much of what PS does but what's germane to what I think you're looking for is that you can use Paul's GG22-toQTR curve just before printing. It enables you to deal with the curve mismatch between PSE and QTR. The curve was created in PS. PSE cannot create curves but it can read them. (There is a plug-in for Elements called Smart Curve so it might be possible to create such a curve after all - I have the plug-in but haven't tried to create a curve similar to Paul's.)
A lot of this thread has been over my head but if I understand correctly how Paul's curve works it might be what you're looking for... PSE is under $100.
My two cents,
Paul W.
