Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Ink Names for Piezography NK7 set.

2006-08-13 by Roy Harrington

Hi Britt,

Right except for the gloss which is GL.   Unfortunately the NK7 profiles
don't have the .qidf files so you need to start from scratch to make 
more profiles
that you can linearize.

However,  what I'd recommend is:  don't mess with the QTR curves, 
instead make
custom ICC profiles based on the existing curves.   This way you can 
keep all
the existing work.   You also get the benefit of soft-proofing in 
Photoshop and
custom matching of you screen-to-print.
