RE: [Digital BW] Hahnemuhle paper - printing side

Two possible solutions-
1) See if there is a curl on the material- the coated side curls up.
2) Lick both sides- the side that stays wet longer is the coated side.

  Subject: [Digital BW] Hahnemuhle paper - printing side


  I've got some William Turner paper from Hahnemuhle.  From what I've
  researched, only one side is coated but for the life of me, I can't tell
yet
  which side is coated.  It's not like EAM, where the coated side is bright
  white and the non-coated side is more of a creamy color.  On the William
  Turner paper, both sides are very bright white, with maybe the most subtle
  difference between them.  About the most significant difference I can see
  between the two sides is that one side has more of a patterned textured
look
  about it (like perhaps it came from between two rollers) and the other
side
  has more of a non-patterned white washed look to it.  I'm guessing that
the
  non-patterned side is the coated side but it's very difficult to tell.

  Does anyone have experience with this paper and found a way to identify
which
  side is coated and which is not?

  Thanks for any help.
