Re: Newbie Question - Profiles for 2200, UC inks, Museo Silver Rag and Portfolio

2008-03-02 by Tyler Boley

this nomenclature problem drives me nuts...
QTR does not use what the rest of the planet calls profiles.
The profiles from the museo site, and the vast majority of other profiles made by paper 
companies for widespread use are color profiles, either icc or icm, for use with color 
printer drivers made by those companies.
QTR does not use icc/icm profiles, it is not a color driver. It uses what are selected in the 
interface as "curves"...
Then we have QTR-Create-ICC, another topic entirely...

Anyway, what you need is someone using QTR that makes their own ink setups, and uses 
this paper, to share the results with you. Fortunately there is a great user base here that 
tends to do just that. So... keep asking...
