I am kicking around doing alt process (Ktype and/or Pt-pd). Since I live in the desert SW that brings up the matter of humidity. Beyond humidifying the workspace what is the best way to deal with the low humidity? If humidifying the paper, is this normally done prior to or after coating?

Any thoughts or experience you can share would be appreciated.

Many people use paper humidifying boxes. I don't use one myself since I find it easier to humidify the workroom.
