FUJITRANS CRYSTAL ARCHIVE DISPLAY
MATERIAL
1. FEATURES AND USES
FUJITRANS CRYSTAL ARCHIVE DISPLAY MATERIAL
is film designed for the production of color transpar-
ency displays. It enables a variety of exposure meth-
ods to be used – from contact or normal enlargement
printing using internegatives or color negatives, to
fast, digital image exposure by laser light.
This film is suitable as a large-sized color medium for
advertising and display work.
Features Results
• Minimal changes in
sesitivity and gradation
regardless of exposure
either by tungsten or
laser light sources.
• Smooth and natural
gradation reproduction,
from the highlights to
the shadows, as well as
neutral grays over the
entire density range.
• Maximum density, along
with distinct reproduc-
tion of shadow details,
even when exposed
quickly by laser or other
strong light sources.
• More faithful and vibrant
color reproduction of
greens, blues, and
yellows, for high color
saturation essential to
display materials.
• True-color images with
minimal reduction in
image density even in
long-term displays under
the most severe condi-
tions.
• Superb Reciprocity
Characteristics (High
Suitability for Digital
Image Exposure)
• Rich Gradation and
Well-controlled Gray
Balance
• Vibrant Color Repro-
duction
• Highest Level of
Color Image Stability

3. SAFELIGHT
For an extra margin of safety this film should be
handled in total darkness. If the use of a safelight is
unavoidable, to ensure no film fogging results, refer to
the following.
• The recommended safelight filter is the Kodak
Safelight Filter No. 13 (or Fuji Safelight Filter No.
103A). Use this filter in conjunction wih a 10 watt
tungsten lamp. Be sure also to work at least 1 m
from the safelight and to finish printing within 1
minute.
• Safelight filters tend to fade with extended use and
need regular checking. Replace when film fogging
is detected.
• Since exposed film is easily subjected to safelight-
induced sensitivity increase in exposed areas, be
sure that handling precautions are taken.
4. RAW FILM STORAGE
This film is subject to deterioration in photographic
performance and finished quality when stored for a
long time under high-temperature and high-humidity
conditions, even if used before the indicated expira-
tion date. For this reason, always store raw film in a
cool, dark place at a temperature of 10°C (50°F) or
less.
5. FILM HANDLING
Because the film is easily marked by fingerprints or
stained by contaminants, always wash your hands
thoroughly, or put on clean cotton gloves before han-
dling the film.
The film sheets are encoded with a notch, which is
located in the upper right-hand corner when the emul-
sion surface is facing toward you.
