I've received an order of the 48 lb. bright white and the paper has a 
faint lillac tint where as the samples of the 76 lb. do look bright 
white. I've printed on the 48 lb. and found that the shadows have a 
bit more detail than EAM but the high highlights seem to blow where 
on EAM the detail is held. 

I've yet to print on the 76 lb. sample. I would really like for this 
paper to work since it can be ordered in panoramic size (13x38) in 
small packs. How does the 76 lb. version compare to EAM? Anyone?
