Re: more detail with EEM than with PhotoRag(?)

Thanks Paul,

I did use your test chart. As a matter of fact I created one with 8 
eught different gray levels. I'll upload it to file section.

Frankly, I'm a bit gobsmacked now. The test charts hardly show any 
differences. Both papers don't have a problem to resolve 7.2 /p/mm and 
both can borderline manage 14.4 lp/mm. IF any difference, than perhaps 
wins the comparison, but it's very hard to tell.

So I'm not sure what's happened with my earlier prints. Perhaps 
difference is moisteaization effecting the bleed? Find it difficult to 
understand as both papers are stored in the same room. I'll guess I 
have to monitor my results closely in the come period.

Thanks all for trying to help!

Joost
