Re: Single Weight Paper

2006-09-22 by Ken Smith

John,
I just looked on ebay and there is some of the Ektamatic paper I 
mentioned, tho 5x7, 500 sheets for a reasonable price.

I found that the Ektamatic paper has been discontinued also, but since 
it has develop built into the paper, even old paper should be viable to 
use. If your client has a 5x7 back for the 8X10, it's an option. I've 
used the paper both as 5x7 and in a 4x5 back in my 5x7.

best,
Ken
