Re: [Digital BW] 13" roll matte paper options

2002-12-03 by Jerry Olson

Phil, I have a huge table in my basement, about 30 feet long by 4 feet
wide.  I built it for mat cutting on half of it, and starting seeds
under lights on the other half. So I have about 15 feet to spread out a
roll. For 24 inch panoramas, I just cut the paper however wide it is,
from 8 to 12 inches wide.  

For 36 inch panoramas, I have a Large metal Square, and cut it across
first, and then, depending on the width, I just cut it down the middle.
I usually get 2 12" x 38" 
sheets out of a 38" inch long cut. I then print an image about 10x36
inches or so, on that paper, giving roughly an inch all around the
image.  Some of the panoramas are 10 or 11 inches wide, giving 2 or 3
inches around all sides of the image. Depends on their length.

Jerry
