Re: [QuadtoneRIP] Simplest way to print from QTR in a Mac ?

2010-04-18 by Rudy Ternbach

I'm no expert but I do not believe you can use QTR as a stand-alone GUI on a Mac. Also, I'm not sure if this is the cheapest but: Photoshop CS 3 and a G 4 Powerbook with 0S 10.5.# would do it.  

Regards,

Rudy
