I'm just about to try using my computer to make an 8 1/2 by 11 neg. on
overhead sheets.....I'll let you know how they work.
Has anyone tried this before?

Hello Mark, et all!
Yes, I used PhotoStyler to make seperation negs on my Epson EPL-7000
using overhead transparency film. Results? Well it all depends. They
probably will work great for gum because the negs are only 300 dpi
and kinda "gritty" looking. I say probably, because I've now spent 3
days trying to make these negs print. I'm still having trouble making
the layers of pigment come out right.
I personally wouldn't recommend computer negs for detail work unless
you're getting the negs done at a commercial house ready to make them
for you. I've seen some fantastic platinum/palladium prints done
using computer negs, as probably many other people on the net have
seen. Or, if your laser printer does a better job than mine can
(believe me, it can't be much worse!).
Hope this helps.
