Re: [QuadtoneRIP] linearization questions

2005-05-03 by Daniel Staver

Right now you can only do one linearization. Roy might correct me on 
this, but looking at my Quadprofile source code I don't think there 
would be anything to prevent me from building in a few more iterations. 
(Quadprofile is only gluing together various components made by Roy so I 
don't always have a complete overview of how everything works).

Linearization is applied after gamma, shadow and highlight. You're free 
to set those to anything you like before you do the linearization.
