Re: question

Hi Andre - Could you give a brand name and designation name or number? In
what stores or types of stores is it sold? I'd like to try this paper
because I've never really come up with a satisfactory base on which to make
digital negatives. All of them seem to have one problem or another so I'd
very much like to try the paper you suggest but I'm not familiar with what
kind of "transparent" paper is used in technical drawings. Thanks. Brian

I have recently experimented with making nagatives on my Epson inkjet
printer.  Ordinary Paper is too grainy for my purposes, waxing actually
accentuated the grain.  Film doesn't take on sufficient density.  Solution:
I use transparent paper as used in technical drawing.  The surface is very
smooth, it has very little grain, is transparent like a waxed paper (and
more evenly so), and takes on a good maximal density.
