[Digital BW] Re: EAM Archivability WAS Fade test: Museo v. EAM

2001-08-31 by Martin Wesley

Harvey,

The Epson Fine Art Smooth sounds very nice but only comes in rolls 
and I don't really want to have to deal with cutting it down. I hope 
that it will come out in desktop sizes.

I tried the Osprey and I don't remember what my reaciton was. I still 
have some and will go back and give it another try.

Thanks,
Martin
