Digital BW, The Print

Martin,

I'm looking for a textured paper like Torchon but not quite as 
textured. The Eclipse velvet in the heavier weight, does it have a 
texture to it or is it smooth? With the duotones I am using I am not 
as concerned about the output problems quad users are. Thank you.
