QTR-Quadtone RIP

As far as I can see the Windows version does not include this option.  Wish it did as I need it for photogravure work.

Subject: [QuadtoneRIP] QTR allows a flip but not invert for dig-negs. Yay!

  
Hey all. Keith Schreiber found this little gem in QTR. (I have no idea why I didn’t see it before!) He posted it on our private PiezoDN forum. 


As some of you know, PiezoDN dig-neg printing does not require one to invert the image in photoshop. The whole idea is that when it’s properly calibrated at the QuadtoneRIP curve level, you don’t have to add any curve layer, inversion, or anything to your digital image before printing a neg through QTR/PiezoDN and then in the darkroom. Final print matches your monitor.

The last little niggling thing was the fact that you would have to still flip the image horizontally in photoshop. This was still making you have to save a dig-neg-only file. But not so! QTR allows a flip-horizontal directly in the menu. We’ll add this to the ever growing manual.

Thanks Roy and Keith.

best,
Walker
