CURVES
2005-08-27 by Peter Mc Mahon
Stephen, yes to all. I ended up deleting what I had done and started again. The following is what I am doing, see if you can see what the problem may be. I have dual monitors, so opened unzipped text curves ex Carl, so I can see and confirm what I am transferring. The following are the named four curves. ._UC-IlfordSmPearl-neutralcolour.txt ._UC-IlfordSmPearl-Sepia.txt ._UC-IlfordSmPearl-Sepia2.txt ._UC-IlfordSmPearl-Warm.txt Open QTR, open "Curve Creation" File/open from the Quad 2400 folder ex Carl selected the first curve -neutral, entered into "File Name" , "File Type Ink Descriptor etc. clicked open. Curve Creator showed on top bar the named neutral curve/ clicked create curve/graphs show for neutral curve etc. I assume that the creation has now been made, as the named curve shows in the curves box in QTR. so click x to exit curves box. I then repeat the operation for the next three, and they all show as loaded. So, why are all the 4 curves showing the same curve when you right click them? am I not completing the exercise correctly? thanks for being patient. regards, Peter.

From: "Stephen Billard" <sbillard@...> Subject: RE: profiles Are all the curves you right click on the same? You might check the file creation dates. The curves supplied in the install should be dated earlier than the ones you created. You did make sure the file names of the new curves were different, didn't you? -Stephen www.sbillard.org/Stephen -----Original Message----- From: QuadtoneRIP@yahoogroups.com [mailto:QuadtoneRIP@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Peter Mc Mahon Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2005 8:20 PM To: QuadtoneRIP@yahoogroups.com Subject: [QuadtoneRIP] profiles Carl & Stephen thanks. Stephen, did as you said and they installed. However, I ran a test print with a sepia curve, slightly dark, but should be ok with small adjustment. Ran a second print with another curve, cool this time. Image printed exactly the same as the first, sepia.I right clicked all the curves[4] to check and the four curves are all the same. Your help would be appreciated, as to where I may have gone wrong. regards, Peter.
