RE: [Digital BW] Mounting and Signing Silver Rag Paper

I'm using 13 x 19 now and finding it will stay flat enough with just tape
hanging behind an over-mat.  I use Light Impressions archival tapes.  It's
the first "glossy" paper that I feel looks good without dry mounting --
which I dislike.  I think some others may be successfully using archival
corners for it.

>Second, how are people signing it?

There are apparently some art pens that you can put our pigment inks into.
However, I'm using Light Impressions' "Pigment liner" "Sketch" pens.  See
their product number 20406.
