Re: [Digital BW] Eclipse Satine -- for Jerry

2002-06-19 by janishilesh

I ordered Enhanced Matte from Atlex.com in the 13x19 size in the 100 
pack (which was 2 x 50 poly bags in a single box). The paper has no 
watermark in the back. I am not sure if the same can be said of the 
50 pack of the 13x19 paper. Best wishes.
