IUE UV spectrophotometric data of quasars are reextracted directly from the photometrically corrected images, forming a data set of 117 quasars with 173 spectra in the short wavelength (1250-1950 A) region and 167 in the long (2200-3200 A) region. The absolute flux in these low dispersion spectra is within 7 percent of the absolute flux in the spectra provided by the IUE observatories. The median value of the s/n ratio in the continuum is about 6 and the quasars in the sample cover an absolute magnitude range from -23 to -30.
