Re: [Digital BW] EAM+Piezotones: ... problems with EAM???

2002-09-23 by Albert Wang

Hi folks,

All of this talk about problems with Piezotones only on EAM paper has 
been worrisome...

Is the problem with the black ink is that it reacts with EAM itself? 
Or is this a problem on acid-free papers like Photo Rag?... Would the 
problem be with the Piezotones or the EAM paper itself. Remember that 
EAM isn't an acid free paper (and probably not as archival as 
expected) and it is a paper best left for proofing.

I don't know whether we're quicker to blame the inks because the 
paper could be a possible factor in the fading equation.

sincerely, AW
