Don,
I had meant to mention the look of the negative when I printed on the
wrong side. It did have this very weird look and I almost dried it to
print with. It struck me that Sam would really have liked the image.
BTW, I am finding that with carbon printing I have to use a sheet of
thin Mylar between the negative and the carbon tissue to avoid part
of the negative sticking to the tissue. The tissue will be perfectly
dry to the touch but it still has enough moisture to pull small parts
off the negative, which of course destroys both the image and the
negative.
Just wondering if folks are having this problem printing with Pt./Pd.
whenu using a vacuum frame?
