Is there any way we can delete this email address from the alt list because
every time I send a message to the list I get this in return.

Susan , Chris
I know very little about photogravure but I do know Danish - my native
language - so here comes my translation of the text by Eli Ponsaing :
UV light, mercury lamp hbr 125, coil bhl 125 or 144, metal halide lamp ,
xenon lamp. Not all sources of light are suited for our copying.
Wavelengths from 400-360 micron in the ultraviolet spectrum are needed. By
the use of FP-plates for photogravure a punctual light source is the best,
which has so small an extension as possible. This kind of light is found
in mercury lamp, sun lamp, xenon lamp, metal halide lamp and carbon arc
lamp.
I hope this helps you.

Hey Chris,
thanks for taking time to post this info! Very interesting stuff. I
look forward to someone jumping in here to translate... one of the
many nice things about this list :o)

Maybe he's using a maglight to make his exposures. ;-)

So based on your theory Chris, if my ratio is 1:1 screen/image, I could
do 10 seconds/ 10 seconds, or 1min/1min, or 15min/15min and it wouldn't
make a huge difference? This might be true to some degree if one is
using imagesetter film for both, since the density of imagesetter film
is so heavy. I'd expect the dots would change size as time is
increased though, since the longer exposures would allow more light to
sneak underneath the edges of the dots. Easy enough to test
Thanks for the posting!
