RE: Pigments for Tri-Color-Gum?

Thank you! :)

I see that you're using opaque pigments for red and yellow (is indigo
indanthrene in WN catalog? if so, that one is marked transparent)...

I was looking for transparent pigments - thinking that these are the
best for tri-color gum printing... But your pigment choice proves me
wrong I guess (or does it work because you're using non-continuous-tone
digital negatives? - every dot color will have its own place on paper;
will not overprint????). Anyway, what are the differences between opaque
and transparent pigments "in gum printing"?

Regards,
Loris.
