Hi I'd echo people's comments on QuadtoneRIP - you can even run it on windows now I believe.
I tried QTR with a 9600 and found that for best results you need to be able to enter your own linearisation data, which needs a suitable measuring device. You will probably find other people have developed the curves for papers you want. A good place to start is the BW printing yahoo group. There was also mention of just using the channel mixer for conversion -- do try some other methods, I've found conversion to Lab and removal of the ab channels often gives very good results. I've collected links and info on many aspects of digital B/W together at <http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/ digital_black_white.html> It includes all the conversion info and links to printing resources. bye for now Keith Cooper =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
