QTR-Quadtone RIP

Richard,

Thank you for this message.  I have looked at your website, which 
includes some more information.

Obviously you have found that QTR curve creation is not easily 
capable of split-tone.  Would you be willing to share (sell) the 
curve creation software you have created?

I was a little surprised that the "platinum" split-tone profiles in 
your system uses all gray inks.  I would have thought it would use 
only black, cool dark gray, and warm light gray.  Unless of-course 
the cool and warm inks by themselves are too heavilyly toned.  Can 
you provide some more information?

Best regards.
