Since most of my own gum printing (except for a brief interlude a while
back) has been in fake color from monochrome, I'm happily enjoying this
discussion as innocent bystander. However I do have one question and one
comment:

Question: Keith, you cite "specification of the *ink*" above, which
sounded to me like you meant the ink of the printer for a digital print,
rather than the paint chosen for a gum print. Is that correct? In which
case, would the other parameters apply?

Comment: Anyone who unsubscribed from this list because of dissent, even
argument, about CMYK vs RGB, has really really really got to be too
sensitive for this world. Meanwhile, however, I don't recall any such
to-do, and I've been here all along.

love & kisses,

Judy
