Where did you find the fine art paper in 13x19 size. I gotta have it. BTW, I've taken some scans through to printing in 48-bit depth. It seemed that the gradation to partial shadow in flesh tones was more natural. Although I printed other very similar shots in 24-bit, I didn't do a direct comparison. But one of these days I will. I'm still using PhotoShop 6 and 48-bit is a handicap. Paul
