Re: Paper Negative Details
And I would want to do this... why?
Sorry, that sounded flip, but I can't think of any reason why I'd
want to add yet another step to making paper negatives, especially
when I have a paper that works perfectly well, and a transparency
that works perfectly well, without rabbit glue. But thanks for the
suggestion,

Katharine,
Just coat the paper with 'rabbit' glue and you will have all the
details you need; btw you can also coat ordinary clear transparency
material with this glue, easy, cheap and astonishing results.
cheers,

John, re using cheap uncoated paper for paper negatives:
Doesn't work well, to my taste. You need a light coating on the
paper to hold sharp edges; uncoated paper (a) tends to make a
softer print and (b) tends to have more internal texture that can
print. But thanks for the suggestion.
