Another (stupid) question on QTR... How do Advanced Adjustments work? I mean: what exactly happens when I adjust the Ink Limit to +5, for example? Does it mean that all ink limits in the profile are pushed to +5 (if default ink limit is 30, the applied ink limit with this adjustment will be 35)? Same for gamma: what happens exactly? Many thx....

The ink limit adjust is pretty straightforward -- +5 is 5% more ink. So if inklimit was 30, the new limit would be 30*1.05 = 31.5 -- Note that all inks at all levels are increased by 5%. The gamma adjustment works like Levels in Photoshop i.e. you move middle gray up or down. But the value shown is different than in PS. A +5 gamma is approximately a +5 at middle gray. I.e a K=50 becomes like a K=55. Roy
