QTR-Quadtone RIP

Can someone explain the differences in the Linearization Tab found in 
the current version of QTRgui, 2.5.0.9 vs, the one that is shown in the 
QTR User Guide?

The current version has 60 input fields while the one shown in the user 
guide displays 21 fields.

Can I surmise that ther is a 60 step digital step tablet that should be 
used instead of the 21 step digital step tablet?

Thanks,

Don Bryant

Your "should be used" should read "can be used".  You can input any 
number of values up to 60.  21 values work for most folks.  I find 
using 51 values (using the 51 step wedge included in the QTR 
installation) sometimes gives me a smoother ramp, but I always start 
with 21.  YMMV

Thanks for the info. I suspected something like that but really wasn't 
sure.
