Frans,

As you know, I have expressed my sympathy with you that it would be 
handy if the documentation would be updated to avoid unnecesaary 
confusion and discussions like us. As also discussed that has to be 
done not by Roy of Stephen, but by us, this community of which you're 
now becoming part of if you want.

But please, don't press it too far. I sympathize as well with Duane's 
comments to you. You just will have to invest time and effort yourself 
to master the basics. Even with an updated QTR manual, the issues you 
address now will NOT be addressed. These ARE PS/color management issues 
and NOT QTR issues. Ernst's suggestions are not necessarily 
inconsistent with other workflows since there are many roads that lead 
to Rome (actually not sure this is a proper Englisch saying, but as 
former Dutch guy you'll understand ;-) ).
