RE: [Digital BW] Re: Permajet papers

2004-01-13 by Paul Roark

I'm just finishing writing curves for UT2 & Permajet Portrait Classic --
which is PhotoRag, as I understand it.  Great paper, but it would be a lot
better if it didn't flake.

Hope you guys as Hahnemuehle get that aspect under control.

Permajet has a new paper I've tested that looks just like PhotoRag but does
not flake.  When it comes out, it'll be the top of the matte paper heap as
far as I can tell -- a non-flaking PhotoRag twin.  Nice.

Another request for the H. engineers -- an RC paper line with a buffered
paper core to give Epson some competition for their Premium barrier/RC paper
line.  There is no reason these papers can't be archival.  The Wilhelm ">200
year" dark storage rating or a similar "guarantee" of longevity is needed
for too much of the market to ignore it.  Calcium carbonate is cheap.
