That file contains the following curves:

UT7-EEnhMatte-carbon.qidf
UT7-EEnhMatte-carbon.quad
UT7-EEnhMatte-cool.qidf
UT7-EEnhMatte-cool.quad
UT7-EEnhMatte-sepia.qidf
UT7-EEnhMatte-sepia.quad
UT7-EPSG-cool-PKN-GLOP.qidf
UT7-EPSG-cool-PKN-GLOP.quad
UT7-EPSG-cool-PKN.qidf
UT7-EPSG-cool-PKN.quad
UT7-EPSG-neutral-PKN-GLOP.qidf
UT7-EPSG-neutral-PKN-GLOP.quad
UT7-EPSG-neutral-PKN.qidf
UT7-EPSG-neutral-PKN.quad
UT7-ISP-cool-PKN-GLOP.qidf
UT7-ISP-cool-PKN-GLOP.quad
UT7-ISP-cool-PKN.qidf
UT7-ISP-cool-PKN.quad
UT7-ISP-neutral-PKN-GLOP.qidf
UT7-ISP-neutral-PKN-GLOP.quad
UT7-ISP-neutral-PKN.qidf
UT7-ISP-neutral-PKN.quad

The curves will show up in QTR with these names. There aren't any curves
with the names you mentioned earlier. 

EEnMatte = Epson Enhanced Matte
EPSG = Epson Premium Semigloss
ISP = Ilford Smooth Pearl

You can right click the curve name in QTRGui to show a curve graph. This
lets you see which inks are part of the curve. You could compare the two to
see if they're the same or not.
