If this was on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag, it may be one of those infamous
batches in recent years that has this bleed problem.  Some batches do
and some don't.  The problem is sufficiently bad, combined with the
yellowing problem, that Jon Cone has recently discontinued support for
HPR.  It's a crying shame.

Of course it's always possible that the printing was on the wrong
side, which is guaranteed to cause bleed on many papers. :-)
