Re: [Digital BW] Legion Photo Matte

Robert,

I completely understand. When I was an art major in college and HS, we would
never use anything but 100% RAG papers.
I also agree, I have used Photo Rag but I am no longer buying it. William
Turner will loose surface if you handle it too much. What is too much, that
depends. I over matte my prints and when thay are stacked they do not touch
each other. So it has not been a problem for me.

Let me know when youy receive the papers I sent you.

Mike
