Re: [Digital BW] Dry Mounting Ink Prints
2004-09-01 by B. Campbell
You can dry mount it but why would you want to? Traditional darkroom prints on fiber base paper have to be dry mounted to get the paper perfectly flat. But ink jet paper is already flat, there's no need to dry mount it to get it that way. And even with fiber base prints, in recent years dry mounting has come into some disfavor with galleries and curators because of the difficulty of undoing it if the mat board deteriorates.
