That is disappointing. In this launch press release,
http://pdfserver.prweb.com/pdfdownload/316598/pr.pdf
it says (third paragraph from the bottom of the first page) -

"NanoChrome\ufffd Hybrid Resin Technology has met the strict challenges of 
fade resistance tests conducted by
independent laboratories and industry specialists. Test results are 
available at www.inkvillage.com and
conclude that fade resistance is comparable or better than major 
archival inks currently on the market while
maintaining more vivid and dense colors."

I've searched for those tests on InkVillage's web site but have been 
unable to find them. I've also emailed Inkvillage for a link but had no 
reply. Does anyone know where these results can be found?
