Susie writes: "The company that used to import the Form X film stopped doing so about 10 years ago when demand dropped as the graphic arts industry began digitizing." >From that I conclude that about 10 years ago it became so easy to print things on colored paper in the US that it didn't make any sense to use colored film. I don't consider an item to be readily available if you have to buy it from a lace supply business, of which there are very few in the US, usually mail order businesses. In contrast the local Staples has boxes of colored paper and card piled up to the rafters. I don't mind buying fine thread, books and patterns at lace supply businesses, but it seems a little anachronistic that we all have to buy imported blue film because, historically, it used to be hard to copy things on colored paper.
