need help defining/explaining our inks (carbon pigments).

2002-03-27 by frankg_photo

Someone who may be interested in purchasing some of my pictures 
wanted to know ALL about the process and although I could tell her 
the inks are carbon pigment not dyes (and about my 'customised 1160 
and my 100% cotton rag paper) - I couldn't answer much more when she 
said - what are "carbons" + "pigments" 7 how are they made. She has 
some knowledge about a color process also called carbon pigment and 
that led to further confusion.
If anyone can provide some detail or can point to an article or web 
site, I'd be grateful.
thanks,
frankg
btw - on these yahoo groups is there a way to mark a thread you're 
interested in following ?
