I agree. It would be great to have a comprehensive list of papers that use OB's. What I don't understand is 1) why OB's are used if they cause an otherwise good (but perhaps less white) paper to noticeably yellow over time (of course, the exception might be those cheaper papers that are used for proofing) and 2) if OB's are a problem, then why do many printers knowingly use papers that contain OB's. I've heard, for example, that some people on this list use EAM for prints that they sell. Is yellowing a problem with EAM or is it in truth not noticeable enough to warrant a change of paper. --- In DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@y..., "antonisphoto" <antonisphoto@y...> wrote: > Good work Robert.
