Good point -- but the stuff will still be archived as the technology
changes and I can still run MusicPrinterPlus on my P4-1.8GHz and still
open, edit, and print files from it. And I was using that 12 years ago.
I installed a 3.5" drive in the computer that was running MPP, and was
able to tr

I use the very same paper/weight as Robert Patterson. It seems a little

Well, even Paper isn't a permanent archival medium -- one great fire and
all the archives will be wiped out! Wasn't it some ancient library that
was completely destroyed back in Alexander the Great's time, which
essentially wiped out the entire history and knowledge of a region back

And you can always put the pdf reader on each CD as you archive your
files so that as long as there is a computer that can run the code you
will have access to your files, even if Adobe has gone the way of the
dodo bird.

As an archivist for many arts projects (not just music), I'm wondering
about paper vs. reproduction stability.

I see this discussion has turned into a discussion of paper type. I,
too, am always looking for better paper. The closest I've found to what
the big publishing houses use is Hammermill Accent Opaque, 70 lb offset,
Natural White (which is actually a light ivory color). This paper is
