Jake, It sounds to me you guys have thought about it and prepared for the archival considerations as well or better than many of us do. I see no reason you could not use them in sealed cases, as long as you are sure the lamination process does not leave anything that offgasses. Mark Janzen Registrar/Collections Manager Edwin A.

The paper we use is Piezo Satin RC photo paper, our printer is the HP Designjet 5000 using UV resistant Archival ink, and we are laminating with a material that is polyester and polyethelene. If anyone has any experience with these materials or suggestions of resources, they would be greatly appreciated. thanks Jake Kasper ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
