Re: Single Weight Paper

2006-09-22 by Ken Smith

Hello John,
I've done similar work with Kodak Ektamatic SC paper. It's got 
developer built in, since it's a machine paper, and is polycontrast - 
good for adding polycontrast printing filters in front of the lense to 
lower contrast, etc. It also has no Kodak branding imprint on the back. 
But......I don't know if it is still available. I have my stash, but 
also may be in need before long if it is no longer available. It may be 
an option for you as a good paper to look for.

best,
Ken
