I love my "lightroom" even more than I did my darkroom Tina, One of my goals in doing my own darkroom work is producing prints that are archival. I would like my prints to last generations. This is where my ignorance kicks in, I have always assumed that a properly handled fiber print will last generations compared to both RC and inkjet. Am I ignorant? Or will a well handled fiber print out last both RC and inkjet? Sam - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
