Re: Loading qidf files into QTR

2016-06-05 by homershannon@...

I answered part of my own question with this article - A Tutorial on Using QuadTone RIP (PC version) to Create Digital Negatives - Luminous Landscape

- I miss you already, Michael Reichmann.

The article describes how a .qidf has to be converted into a .quad using the create curves tool within QTR. To an extent this process works. But, after I load the .qidf into the curves generator, I cannot find any way to save it as a .quad - the only options are as an ink descriptor (.qidf) or a text file . Saved as a .qidf the file just over writes itself. How do you generate the .quad?
