Kevin,

 

The standard readouts from densitometers and spectrophotometers are density
or Lab lightness readings.  I don't know how Clayton's ratings compare.  My
1.60 density cut-off point (must be more than 1.6 or less than Lab L=18) is
what I determined I'd use as a filter to cut through the huge number of
papers.  Others may really like the look of papers with less than this, but
as much for time savings as aesthetic reasons, I apply the 1.6 filter to
eliminate papers from my consideration.
