Is there a standard or recommended minimum density above paper base white where highlight tones should be placed ?
Yes you are quite correct . When I said above I guess I meant below. I was thinking in numbers, 0.8, 0.10 etc.
I determine the print exposure time based off of the important highlight in the negative that should retain some sense of texture on the print surface, about a Zone VIII area or "full" texture in the highlights around a Zone VII area.
the ofirst who attempted to create a print density standard to my knowledge was minor white, but i have a recommendation for you:
that's what i do and recommend as the most streamlined process to get to a full-scale'workprint'
