But in the darkroom you have to know about dilutions and time and lots of other calculations that are much more complicated than a Raster Image Profile. The RIPs for various papers and inks are determined and easily downloaded from the internet. When you change a paper or developer or temperature in the darkroom, you have lots of experimenting to do. Instead of thinking of it as a RIP, you could think of it as a DTTA - dilution, time, temperature, agitation. What's the difference!! Tina Tina Manley, ASMP http://www.tinamanley.com
