QTR-Quadtone RIP

I am attempting to use some .qidf file developed by Paul Roark. I installed them into the file C/ProgramFiles (x86)/QuadToneRIP/QuadTone and they are showing up in my folders without any issue. However, in QTR, when I select Printing Model and the associated QuadTone folder, the files do not show up Curves Setup / Curve 1: window.

I've tried adding selected .qidf files to other QuadTone folders and I get the same thing. The new files are never listed, despite closing QTR and restarting it.

How do you get QTR to recognize the files in the folder correctly?

When you are in the curve creator module and open the qidf you just need to Click "show curve". That will initiate the create curve program and your .quad file will be in the correct quad printer folder and allow you to select it in the curve drop down print option. Unless you are on win10... In that case after you press show curve you need to wait a second for it to hang up, then close the QTRgui and then when you relaunch it should have installed the curves ok...

I think in win10 you can save the file without using the show curve button and avoid the system from hanging.
