Hi everyone,

Can anyone confirm watermark info on back of current Kodak paper?

I need to know what watermark/backprinting appears on sheets of 20 x 24 Kodak Endura Supra Paper. (Or whatever analog paper is currently sold by Kodak, that replaces the below.)

My old prints are on Kodak Ektacolor Supra II (N). These are printed with “Kodak Professional Paper” on the back. I am trying to find paper that is printed with the same.

I heard that all papers are now printed with “Professional Image – copyright” or something to that effect.

I would have to buy a batch in order to find out myself. Does anyone have any recent (exposed) paper they could look at?

Also, is there a difference between:

“Kodak Ektacolor Supra Endura Color Negative RC paper”, as listed by B&H and “KODAK PROFESSIONAL SUPRA ENDURA Paper” as listed by the Kodak website?

Thanks so much in advance,

Evan

:confused:

The most recent thing I have on Kodak color paper is a proof sheet from Duggal from January 2008, and it says "Kodak Professional Endura Paper - Papier - Papel" and then in all caps "Professional images are copyright protected" and other copyright notices in various languages and phrasings--"Do not copy," "Durch Copyright Geschützt," "Prohibida la reproduccion," etc.

What difference does it make for you?

I would have thought you wanted a paper just without any printing so you could back-print or do some other sort of fine-art alternative application.

Evan;

Then you should know that the front of the paper has a hidden watermark that apparently shows up when copied. IDK for sure. There are some APUG members that could comment on this, I'm sure. This watermark was introduced rather recently. I have only seen it in photomicrographs.

Hi,

I am a stickler for consistency (for this particular project), that's all.

Thanks,

Evan

Just curious, but in the light of this thread and PEs comments, I am curious about the choice of the phrase "rephotographyproject" ... is there a connection?
