Hi all,

I have a large job for a composer whose work is being done by an orchestra in
Germany.

Normally I set up my parts scaled to 100% for Arch A and let the receiving
organization print the PDFs to their taste, which scale well to Letter
(8.5x11), Arch A (9x12), Music (10x13), 11R (11x14), or one of the ISO sizes.

In this case, the composer tells me the orchestra is expecting actual paper
parts, not PDFs. The only time I actual sent paper parts in the past 10 years
was in 2004 to a U.S. orchestra that wanted Letter size. I went to the MOLA
site to check for international paper size recommendations, but all I get is
"this account has been suspended".

First question: Can anyone offer advice as to what size would a German
orchestra typically use for its parts, and any quirks I should watch out for?

The composer sent me his pencil score reproduced on thicker-than-normal paper.
I've been working on the parts (which are due before the score) and the toner
is quite worn and flaking off now.

Second question: Can anyone recommend a printer or copy shop in Manhattan that
deals in copying at archival temperatures, so it will fix the toner to this
thicker paper?

Thanks,
Dennis
