Good point, Dave! I should clarify that my previous comments in this thread
applied to making digital negatives for contact printing. --John

Sandy,
It is plastic (polyethylene or something like that), so it is very very
dimensionally stable. It is coated for ease of printing. That's why it's
good
for painting and alt-process as well. :-)
The only thing is that it does not look really like watercolor or real paper
where you can really see/feel the texture. Of course, depending on your
application or preference, this might or might not be a concern.
