They will call it "Fine Art Pearl" It is a 285 gsm paper and is triple coated. Availability will be in mid April. Don don.dory@gmail.com March 15, 2006 Dear Don, I hope you are doing well. Here is some of the latest news from Hahnemuhle FineArt. Hahnemuhle FineArt Announces Stunning New FineArt Paper In response to the growing demand for a superior fiber-based digital fine art media with the look and feel of a traditional darkroom photo paper, the Hahnemuhle mill is introducing the newest member of its digital FineArt media collection. As with all Hahnemuhle papers, FineArt Pearl has been developed to the highest standards using only the finest raw materials and manufacturing techniques. FineArt Pearl 285gsm is a triple coated, lignin free, 100% alpha-cellulose paper. The result is a surface that is remarkably similar to a traditional silver gelatin double-weight photo paper. In a side-by side comparison to similar papers from competitors, Hahnemuhle FineArt Pearl proved to be significantly superior in D-Max, white point and surface structure.
