[alt-photo] Re: film substrate

[Greg Mikol]

Yes, the Freestyle "house brand" is "Arista II Inkjet OHP Transparency 
Film".

The manufacturer claims Pictorico Ultra can hold 25% more ink than the 
Premium. But like I said, I personally have never hit the ink limit for 
Pictorico Premium, so I've never felt like I needed a product that holds 
more ink.

Don't have any experience with the lumijet film.
