QTR windows prints from files. Only TIFF files. LR save as file, saves as JPEG files. How to convert so that QTR could be used to print. Add one step. This could be hidden by a GUI calling a command line tool. An Example:

using imagemagick: “convert test.jpg -compress None test.tif”

NOTE: “convert” is a command native to Windows so the above sample has to be modified to “imconvert” for windows users. See the imagemagick site for information on doing this… READ MORE HERE

This is when a project gets too big. The programmer starts adding features to a “test only” version of an application. I can create a “profile” in an editor, save it, and print a scale with the new “lady.go” driver. What I had wanted to do, I can. I am able to easily test ink + paper combinations without using PS and image files.

Oddly, today on the BWPrint list, someone bemoaned (complained) about QTRIP’s obfuscated profile maker system. I have correspondent with a handful of people interested in what I intend to do. Several of them are working on system that would supplement Roy’s work. That isn’t my intention. Quadtone RIP has its dozen Gurus along with a thousand acolytes. I have no need to alter their path, nor to convert to it. Can’t wait to see where I get to on this one.
