I would have thought that the holes in the woven screen would be much larger than the pores in the paper. I always thought of these as coarse and fine filters, even though I had no idea of how coarse and how fine they might be. How sure are you about the fineness of the screen? If you had one of these screens could you measure it some way? - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
