I haven't yet tried creating any curves for
papers I have--mainly because I'm sampling and trying to make a decision on what
paper(s) I will use with QTR.? I've done this before with papers for color
images both on 1280 and 2200, but printing 21 step wedges on papers with QTR for
sampling without specific curves for some papers has presented me with a
question.
?
Carl Schofield on Digital B/W list just
mentioned the use of some of the available curves for 'alternate' papers, but I
wonder about others.
?
For instance,? I received the Innova
sample pack and would love to know what others have used for the Photo FB, Soft
Textured Art and Photo Smooth White Cotton.? I also printed sepia/cool on
William Turner, but wonder about what curve others would use (bar using a
custom).? There are some others--which I try to do a search on in forum,
but we all know the problems with that.? I also try to find specs on the
papers listed that I'm unfamiliar with and see if they are anywhere close to the
paper I'm working with.
?
BTW--someone suggested that Concord Rag was
lovely for sepia--I concur.? I found one piece left and did step
wedges.? Not sure I would use this paper, but it is very nice for that
purpose.
