I posted this yesterday but somehow it didn't return to me (also it
didn't show up in the list archives). So I'll post it again. Sorry if
you get this for the second time.

Hi Katherine,

The standard emulsion in my mind was pigment specific: I mean
pigment/gum/dichromate ratios different for each pigment. Thanks for the
warning anyway.

BTW, also thanks for the comments on my "strategy". I guess both
Christina and you saved me from useless struggle.

Regards,
Loris.

But if "standard emulsion" means that for every pigment you use, you
use the same amount of pigment, gum and dichromate, then I'd say that's
not such a good idea. So I hope it's the first and not the second. I
just need that clarification.
