Re: QuadToneRIP version 2.4 released, Mac & PC

2006-03-02 by Johnny Eades

I just downloaded the new 2.4.0 version of QTR and when opening a
curve an error message is generated about too many errors in ink
description and lists all the inks listed in the profile being used
with the message error in ink description and lists the line number.
I've tried opening your curves and also mine I've created. Has anyone
else reported this error?

Your friend in Photography,
