Title: Signing Photo Rag
Post by: pcox on April 19, 2009, 10:21:00 am

Hi folks -
I prefer to sign my prints with a pigment pen, rather than a pencil. However, the coating on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag does seem to destroy the tips of my fine-tipped pens rather quickly. Anyone out there found a pen that works well for this paper?

Cheers,
Peter

I've been using a fine point Sharpie marker and it seems to be working ok. I haven't signed a ton yet though, so not sure how it will hold up in the long run.
