QTR-Quadtone RIP

@Frank:  If you're working completely within Photoshop, including
printing, and follow the instructions, you should not have a problem,
IMHO.  This thread is largely aimed at those of us who print via Qimage.

@Roy:  Thanks for this new version.  I'll try it out.  I have to say
that on my calibrated XP machine, I haven't found soft-proofing with
QTR custom profiles with black ink and paper colour simulation to be
as good a guide to the final print as I usually do with colour. 
Perhaps this is my relatively untrained eye.

@Eric:  Anyone using Vista at this still early stage has only
themselves to blame.  :)  I bought a new faster PC recently, and
choose to do so while XP OEM can still be bought.  Unfortunately my
notebook came with Vista, but it is now dual boot.
