Re: [Digital BW] HWM rated more archival than EAM/EEM !?

2003-02-22 by Bob_Michaels <Bob@BobMichaels.org>

Jerry: So I wonder if it's that my HWM is brighter than your HWM or if
my EEM is creamier than your EEM? Maybe the HWM is initially brighter
because of added brighteners which degrade over time. That might
support the general thinking that the EEM is relatively "more
archival" than HWM which is what Paul Roark alluded to.

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
