RE: New Blog on the block
Judy, > With those factors rendered identical after an initial soak, any paper, including probably newsprint will be "dimensionally stable." Which is to say, the photographer is trained. (My own tests show that UNLESS treatment is thus identical, NO paper is "dimensionally stable.") > Hmmm, did I forget to clip the messages from Loris and Katharine? Obviously a mistake by me and my post was not related to their discussion about freeform gum. I can't speak for the blogger that wrote the article but I'll guess that by dimensionally stable they meant that the paper can easily be used for multi layer gum over palladium printing without worry of registering and re-registering a negative of whole plate size. For me, when I shrink BFK for gum printing I give the parent sheets two shrinkings which seems to work good enough for multiple layers of gum Don
