i do photo, art and book restorations. The papers I use are a most important consideration. After a long search, I contacted Amplis for recommendations to approximate particular specifications. The response I received was an excellent description of options, describing advantages and disadvantages of each. I chose Hahnemuhle Fine-Art Rag 188 GSM and I could not be happier with the results. The print option is "Velvet" and that is exactly how the paper feels. There is a very fine gradation in the grey scale from white to black, the colors are accurately represented from subtle to vivid intensity. I will be recommending the paper to my clients.
