Re: [Digital BW] Tinting the paper before or after?

2002-09-12 by Martin Wesley

Bo,

That idea came up somewhere way back when. Some people were talking about
dipping sheets of paper in weak tea or coffee to give a mottled brown stain,
drying them and then printing on them. I don't know if anyone actually did
this or not.
