QTR-Quadtone RIP

John

I'm not sure which curve files you are referring to. If it is the files in
the QuadtoneRIP group section for the 1400 printer, then those files include
a folder called inkDescFiles-UT14. In that folder are the qidf files.
However, the files have been created on a Mac, I think, and have the
extension ".txt". If you're on a Mac too, someone else will have to help you
use them. If you're on a PC, which it seems you are, then you can open those
files using the QTRgui curve creator by using file open and setting the file
type to all. Once you do that you will see the .txt files and can open them.

The .quad files can't be opened in the curve creator.

Hope this helps.
