Digital BW, The Print

I haven't yet tried creating any curves for papers I have--mainly because I'm sampling and trying to make a decision on what paper(s) I will use with QTR.  I've done this before with papers for color images both on 1280 and 2200, but printing 21 step wedges on papers with QTR for sampling without specific curves for some papers has presented me with a question.

Carl just mentioned the use of some of the available curves for 'alternate' papers, but I wonder about others.

For instance,  I received the Innova sample pack and would love to know what others have used for the Photo FB, Soft Textured Art and Photo Smooth White Cotton.  I also printed sepia/cool on William Turner, but wonder about what curve others would use (bar using a custom).  There are some others--which I try to do a search on in forum, but we all know the problems with that.  I also try to find specs on the papers listed that I'm unfamiliar with and see if they are anywhere close to the paper I'm working with.

BTW--someone suggested that Concord Rag was lovely for sepia--I concur.  I found one piece left and did step wedges.  Not sure I would use this paper, but it is very nice for that purpose.
