My experience in attempting to explain the process and helping others suggests that unless you are very experienced with acv curves, it's too frustrating to try. I generally recommend people stay with the curves I've made and include in my Zip files that contain profiles for the various printer/inksets I've used. > Paul > www.PaulRoark.com Paul, It is a lot of trial and error, I have always admired your skill and patience in that work. The more as I'm right now creating similar curves in Qimage for a HP K5400 Officejet loaded with HP Vivera pigment MK, PK, Grey and Light Grey. Using the Windows driver for that printer. Qimage's curve editing is more limited but on the other hand the curves can be used as a Qimage Printer Filter which is applied as a very last step before the print data is created. The image can so be kept as a greyscale image in the print page preview etc. Qimage's color management allows me to add an extra QTR B&W profile for the smaller adjustments and softproof. It also gives me all the other Qimage Ultimate features. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Ernst Try: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Wide_Inkjet_Printers/ | Dinkla Grafische Techniek | | www.pigment-print.com | | ( unvollendet ) |
