A Good Substitute Of Film

Rub the paper with a piece of soap ,until it is covered by a thin layer of soap , look from aside, any concave should not be seen ,by this,the surface of the paper will be very smooth.

NEXT ,you can print you patern to this paper ,I use a laserjet printer 600dpi,the transfered patern is very clear.I do not know is this can apply to a ink jet printer.

anyway,an piece of A4 paper is cheaper than a piece of film

see through paper....

Info at no charge.... :evil

If using the laser printer ..acetone.... paper method...

1..find where your image is printing on the paper....

2...tape a piece of the finest rice paper...(available any art supply)...to this spot on regular paper...place in printer and print with whatever settings u use...(rice paper is not heavy enough to print on its own)

3...remove the rice paper print from the regular paper....

4...you now have a print you can see through ALMOST as well as a transparency..

5...treat this print the same way as you would if printed on regular paper..will transfer in the same manner by rubbing the back with acetone..actually for some reason seems to transfer even better than regular paper...
