You may also want to try Dave Soemarko's LC-1 and LC-1B low contrast
developer, which was formulated for specifically for lith film. This
developer was discussed in a past issue of Post Factory Photography
and also on pp. 45-47 of Christopher James' The Book of Alternative
Photographic Processes. If interested the formula for LC-1B is as
follows:
750ml Distilled Water
4 g Metol
80 g Sodium Sulfite
4 g Hydroquinone
20 g Sodium bisulfite
Distilled water to make 1000 ml
To use, dilute between 1:5 and 1:10, and develop films between 5 and
10 minutes.
