it is my limited experience that so far. they _do not_ hold up. items that
i did 3 years ago are showing signs of deteriation. especiall if touched
or jostled.  hve not yet found a good perm solution besides the old
fashioned crow quill point and higgens india ink, the rapidograph or
koughlanor (sppppp) pen and india ink, althoug at the moment i am useing
some pigma pen labels that seem good.  still a 100% cotton rag paper.
Byron Weston if you can get it - bio-rip or university products have a
good paper which is "resistall"  whcih i think is byron weston.

so the paper is good, it is just the ink!  in my book lasor or any of the
rest do not cut it. sorry. pain in the touchas i know.

cheers!  rof
