What would be the best combination of fine art paper and a stamp method for applying a stamp on the back of large prints, 15 x 20 inch and up ? I've tried "Crane Museo Silver Rag" with an Xstamper (self inking). The back side of the paper was not taking the ink easily and the contour became bigger as the ink floated. It eventually dried somewhat. I then tried "Canson Platine Fiber Rag". The stamp dried much quicker (back side is not coated). However it seems that the ink enters into the paper, shining slightly through to the front side! I ended up writing all info by hand with a pencil - it was my first sale of art for a collector. Does anybody have experience with that issue? How would you put all the art specs on the back of a photo using a professional looking form? Thanks, Martin
