I need to do some text along with photo prints and >I wanted to find a paper that's not going to go brown before the prints. The Epson Bright White plain paper has OBAs in it. They will fade relatively quickly and giving the impression that the paper is yellowing. I'm not sure what the paper tone will be after they've faded away. An un-brightened -- no OBA -- paper like Epson Premier Art (205) Scrapbook (about $0.65 per page at Atlex.com) will start out a bit creamier, but it'll not yellow at all. Epson claims this is their most archival paper. In the Wilhelm tests where he says, "More than" X years, it may be that the apparently higher rated bright white plain paper has just been tested for a longer period due to, for example, the need to satisfy some large archivally-sensitive buyer (like a government purchasing office -- just speculation).
