Robert,

Regarding tonal quality in your Van Dyke prints, do you print a step wedge
with curve applied along with your image? This will show if your curve
needs to be adjusted. I started with Dan Burkholder's platinum curve for my
Van Dykes and had to make about three adjustments to the curve before
getting the right contrast. Sorry I have no suggestion for the second
problem. I use Stonehenge paper and have never had anything come off in the
final wash.

You can look at some of my Van Dykes on www.alternativephotography.com under
Artists and Photographers gallery. Grace
