Digital BW, The Print

Very good concern Paul.  So far I have made small prints and these will stay flat.   This 
paper takes lots of ink and does so very well.   I voiced only one concern  with Crane and 
that was about the 300 gm. wt. of this new paper.  It is so great to be free of that whole 
dry mounting processs of darkroom days of past.  I have done some prints using the K3 
inks on Luster and Glossy papers and they have all had to be  dry (cold) mounted in some 
way or another...what a mess.  I also suggested to Crane that they make a 500 gms. wt. 
paper tho don't know if they will. Cost may be prohibitive.  I will cut off a large piece of 
this paper from my test roll and flatten it and see if st stays flat under a mat.  eleanor
