Photographic H-alpha spectrophotometry of the active chromosphere star HR 1099 is presented. The data were obtained during both radio-quiescent periods and radio flares during the years 1976-1979. This paper presents the data and data reduction techniques. In particular, the method used to correct the observed H-alpha profiles for the distortion introduced by the irregular 'continuum,' due to the underlying absorption lines, is presented and discussed. The techniques for measuring the equivalent widths and estimating the errors are presented. In addition to the major results presented earlier, it is found that the line widths of the H-alpha emission are broader than can be accounted for by rotation and orbital motion.
