QTR-Quadtone RIP

Robert,

I use excel for plotting my curves, but I don't have a working densitometer so I've been 
eyeballing my densities, which is fine by me.  I don't plan on placing excel spread sheets 
next to my print on the wall, so if it looks good to me, that works fine.  anyway you may 
want to try versiontracker.com to see if there is any shareware on there.  A QTRgui would 
be nice for mac, I'd like to import a PS curve, but don't know how just using text files.  

Andy
