Hmmm, Perhaps it's a matter of preference... My experience (don't know
if it of value for how others work) is that in Sept. 2000, I purchased
100 sheets of "Platinotype" from B&S. I did not find that it printed
Cyanotypes that I preferred over my results on Arches Platine paper. It
is smoother and perhaps whiter than the Arches, but I was never able to
produce the deep blues that I do with the Arches Platine, same results
if I was useing the traditional chemistry or the "New" Ware formula. I
haven't compared the papers (and my results) with Pt/Pl yet.
I order the Arches Platine from Daniel Smith. 800-426-6740, they don't
offer a 100 sheet price break online, but do by phone.
