Mike, this is also why I prefer (for now) the more textured papers.  I am
interested in the interaction between the paper surface and the ink (image)
information, and the resultant lessening of dmax and sharpness be damned!

BTW, Paul you are also correct in that platinum blacks do not reach the
density of silver blacks. The big difference is that the platinum print
gives the viewer the feeling of depth. This is because the matallic
particles are not only found on the surface of the print, but are also
imbedded into the paper fibers.
