I think they should leave the world alone when it's working (but they don't listen to me).Keith!! A blast from the past!! This is verrry interesting, thanks to you and Judy for this tidbit.

And it's EXTREMELY helpful when squeegeeing the wet print to remove excess size... without it you get all kinds of artifacts, tho maybe, maybe not "fish eyes." J.
