Re: Seeking Yellower Print Hue with 9600 and QTR

Thanks Carl,

I'll try that this weekend. 

I just made a great match to the original deteriorated document by
using rgb colorspace and the Epson driver and creating a hue sat/curve
combination. That way I was able to control the reddish sepia
engraving with the yellowish stained/sepia paper ground. 

But for other yellowish sepia situations what you described is what
Roy also just wrote me and I'm sure that would work well.


Thanks,

John
