Digital BW, The Print

Antonis and those that are interested, I believe that the Fusion 4000 is still available, but to 
be honest I haven't dry mounted my own prints in years (but will probably be doing so for 
larger prints in the near future), so I'm not exactly sure exactly sure what the current 
products are in the industry.  Most dry mounting these days in frameshops use a special dry 
mount board (usually a foamcore) that would definitely NOT be considered archival.  
Framers, at least the good ones, would never consider dry mounting an original work of art 
unless specifically asked to do so, and many will have you sign a form stating that dry 
mounting could possibly devalue the work.  Dry mounting us usually reserved for items like 
posters and commercial work where permanence is not an issue, but cheap and flat is!

Probably the best thing to do is to go to "Seals" website and research current available 
materials, and inquire from individuals like Paul, who have been dry mounting their work and 
are concerned with permanence.  For the best permanence always use rag, or at least alpha 
cellulose board; I believe it is ok to use the buffered variety with inkjet prints, but not sure 
and would need to check!

Glad to hear some of you got something out of my short dissertation on framing!
