Dear all,
for some time now I've been wanting to return to printing with gum bichromate process that I have once tried and liked. Also the idea of gum over metal (e.g. VanDyke) is very appealing to me.
One of the main questions that remains to be solved is the registration system. That's where I'd like to ask you for your help and advice.
I will be working with in-camera negatives, 8x10 and 5x7 format.
Is there any way to achieve a reliable registration for multiple layers without actually making holes in the negative itself and in the final print?
What are your methods?
Thanks!
