QTR works well on Windows platforms, although the Mac and Win versions are not simple translations (trans-codings?) of each other. QTR was designed for B&W, I

it can be used for monochrome printing on Windows - you need qtrgui as well for printing though, as it can t be used with the native windows print drivers. See

Tracy, Brian is travelling at the moment so he may not answer for a day or two. Richard Boutwell cracked what you need to do to use TXT files with i1Profiler

For those on Mac s instead of trying to re-linearize K7 .quad files which is hard to do, go the ICC route. Just create a custom grayscale ICC built on top of

This is a procedure I learned about from a kind member off-group and it enables linearizing a QTR curve. That s the last step in creating a curve and perhaps

Thanks. I ll give it give it a go.

Yes I have an i1, but as a K7 printer my interest is in re-linearising existing K7 curves for an ageing printer. i haven t had the need to create new ones,

I m finding Textedit on the Mac to be a little clunky, but most text editors look like overkill when all I want to do is muck around with curves. Can anyone

Upon reflection, I m not so sure about this statement. I ve compared the master curve for my printer with the curves for a couple of commonly-used paper

You were arguing that getting the ink limits correct for each paper type is important. If this is correct then how can the Cone custom curve creation process

I was thinking the same thing - that it should be a one time print and read only. I printed the second time and pasted the linearise values and checked. And it

The original question was sorted out a while back, so feel free to go for it. I don t dispute the need for the inksep prints, but I do wonder how K7 systems

ReD Ognita I recently made a few curves using the RAW curves as a baseline. PC. - You choose the closest RAW curve to the type of paper. - Rename- Print a 21x4

Starting with those raw ink descriptor files is an option, but here are two points of caution with just linearizing the raw curves: 1: Most papers will respond

I m using K7 inks now but I did make curves for K3 for a 3880 without the Inksep step. They were nice and linear and looked good to my untrained eye.

Perhaps I am confused by your post but if you create your own curves then you must print an ink separation test as your first test to properly define the ink
