Digital BW, The Print

I appreciate all the comments so far. Hopefully more of you will offer your
opinions and experiences of matte vs. glossy.

I want to add that the Innova F that I like is not like drug store glossy
paper. It is much more subdued and offers a not-completely-smooth texture. I
have read that others liken it to fiber F photographic paper that has been
air-dried rather than glazed.

Since my prints in question are to be framed and hung in an exhibtition, the
advantages of matte's non-reflective surface are lost to me.

Other here recently have praised the Crane Silver Rag. I have some sample
sheet of this coming from Eric at Booksmart Studio along with the Innova F
Warmtone (same as Innova F but without OBAs) and the Innova luster finish. I
am particularly interested in the warmtone paper but I look forward to do
some more comparisons.

Finally, despite all of what I have written, I have continued to look at
some of the matte test prints that I made and the images on Entrada with MIS
eboni as the MK ink look quite good.

Since my final prints have yet to be made, I may go with matte after all...
:)

Dave.
