So far as I understand it the paper has no use outside bromoil etc, and asked
why the stippling was there as it inhibited the paper's use for these purposes.

Kentmere document art paper is principally made for the graphic arts industry.
It is stippled to enable it to take paint and pencil and so on. The single
coating also goes towards achieving that objective. Fine art painting students
in London colleges buy it by the roll for that purpose. I have used it for hand
tinting photographs, using water-colour, where the effects can be more subtle
than using photo
tints. There is the analogy of Gloy gum used for gum printing. We are using it
for a purpose for which it was not intended, while it works, don't knock it. The
new Document Art works for bromoil; I found that I needed just a little more
persistence and patience.

If people find the stippling unacceptable, oil pigment printing has great
potential and one has a choice of finishes for the paper.

Watercolour paper coated with Kentmere's light sensitive silver gelatine
emulsion, available from Silverprint, also works.
