Digital BW, The Print

Oddity..my worst results are with big areas of maximum black. Big deep
shadows = bronzing. Images with small areas of max black show no
bronzing at all... 

I don't understand this big/small phenom, but its obvious.

GOOD news: slight selenium tone (selenium looks like Cyan plus Red =
C+Y+R on several papers) may pass nicely for Agfa's Portriga Rapid
(except for big max black areas)...

BEST news: with selenium look, highlights aren't even faintly tinted
(selenium look doesn't affect highlights as much as the same amount of
Magenta alone does...a mystery).
