Hi Ken; I'm not too surprised it doesn't work at that size; that leaves you with sending it out to a photolab for either dry-mounting or cold- mounting. I would test a smaller finished print in your dry-mount press to see how it responds to the heat-if you use a low-temp RC tissue it should work. If it doesn't work, look for a place that does cold-mounting-there's an adhesive and a vacuum press involved (I think-does anyone else have details on this process?)and I have no idea what the archival proerties of the adhesive might be. Perhaps Greg or Tyler can give us more details on this, along with any other methods available?
