[Digital BW] Re: Aardenburg Imaging Fade Tests

That sounds perfect Mark. I will contribute some samples and a payment toward that. 
If we could do them all at the same time, with the same inksets then we'll really know a lot more. THEN I hope the paper manufactures and the 3rd party ink companies  will start using you regularly and contributing some support, like they should have a long time ago.

> In the round robin testing I was suggesting earlier, we could include more than one benchmark paper. Canson infinity Rag photographique, Museo Portfolio Rag, HPR, Premier Art Smooth Fine Art, and no doubt  several others are all similar in aesthetic properties, ie., for the most part without "bright white" OBA appearance and similar weight and texture. One goal of a paired comparison test is simply to better isolate any other variables Hence, the test samples should be run as one batch in testing.  I've got up to 25 sample capacity that can be tested as a single batch in one of my light fade units, so there is room for more than just one "benchmark" paper type.
