Digital BW, The Print

Paul,

Thanks for the quick response, especially on a Sunday morning. I recall reading 
the UT-3D document which formed the basis for higher "enlightment" ( I hate that 
word) of the interaction betwen the different tones and denisties of carbon ink. 
The piece I am thinking about is actually in a footnote of a different document. 


The UT-3D document states the same thing though, if there is an increase of a 
warm denisty the netutral curve will cause an increase in Lab b* while an 
increase in a cool denisty will result in a decrease of Lab b* . The footnote I 
am referring to takes it one step further by indicating what denisty adjustments 
affect the Lab a* shift of a neutral curve.

My objective is to reach a fairly neutral curve on BFK Rives using the K4 
approach minimizing the amount of cool ink I am using. It may be a bridge too 
far as the paper starts off fairly warm.

Then again, it could be all of those cigarettes I smoked as a teenager too...

This may be what you're thinking of:
