Joao,
I suspect that you are right - a direct translation of virages is
bending, so I suspect that this refers to the changing of the properties
of the original print. As in the text the two processes are related this
would seem to make sense.
As to the other questions - encre grasse is lnking with fat if you like,
or Oil printing, epreuve pigmentaire is pigment print. Le Report, is I
think just a postponement.
Hope this helps
Cheers
