an inexpensive and accurate method to linearize a QTR curve

an inexpensive and accurate method to linearize a QTR curve

2015-05-09 by paulmwhiting@...

I hope it's ok to post this link again in this group, but I first posted it under a thread where the original topic might not make my post obvious - a bit of thread drift perhaps but it did follow the post immediately preceding it.

I learned about this method from a kind member off-group and we worked on a narrative to sum up our conversation so that others might find it useful. For one thing, it does not require a densitometer, just a gray scale and a flatbed scanner.

Let me know of any unclear passages or errors.

Regards,

Paul
