[Digital BW] Re: Will this forum ever get streamlined?

2005-03-21 by Scott Graham

What would be even better would be a subgroup, like a sub folder or sub directory, but I 
don't know that that is possible in Yahoo groups,

so a new group is starting strictly focused on QTR.  

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/QuadtoneRIP

The intent of course is QTR related posts, but we will also offer an instruction manual 
eventually and whatever else seems reasonable.  Will also depend on what resources we 
can attract, and donations (of files: hints, tips, etc).

Hopefully non QTR related items will continue to post here because this is a great group.  
As a matter of fact non QTR items will be "moderated out" with a link to here.

I am in discussion with Roy Harrington about how much or how little involvement he will 
have time for/be interested in.  I would hate to distract him from further technical 
upgrades to the RIP.

The group will start slowly if only because I am in the midst of a cross country drive.  
Come join "us"; it is lonely l over here  :)

Suggestions are welcome: like maybe "don't bug us with another darn group, or..."  or "it's 
crass to post this on someone else'sgroup" (I am sort of bothered by that)

QTR in more or less 'soft proof' mode written by Lou Dina I believe.  I copied it for my own 
use and it would be a good candidate for the files.The other thing I copied (and I've 
printed out both) is the help from Roy Harrington's page for the same usage.  These have 
been helpful to me, but I bet something along the lines of how to actually use QTR for the 
beginner would be a good addition to the file--something similar to Lou's very short and 
sweet directions for proofing.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
