Drop-Quad-Profile usage

2008-05-01 by John Barnes

On page 4 of the Eye-One-ReadMe.pdf document there is a reference to
"re-process the ink file with Drop-Quad--Profile..."

The end of the file that I get from the QTR-Linearize-Data is shown here:


LINEARIZE="93.86 88.79 83.77 79.02 73.56 68.88 63.38 57.79 54.43 51.45
47.85 44.5 41.52 38.82 36.27 33.55 31.13 27.29 22.99 18.5 15.54"

I assumed that the ink file that I wanted to modify was
UC_EEnhMatte-black.txt

I noted that  the last lines of that file had the grey values in
density units rather than percentage values. I went ahead in replaced
those lines with my linearization values. When I dropped the madified
files onto the Drop-Quad-Profile droplet I got the message 

"line 17:line 17: quadprofile: command not found"

Where do I go from here?
