    I so appreciate your experiments. The deal breaker for me here lies in two words: “some bleedthrough.” Nope.

      Thank you! I’m glad that you found it useful. I do find that the paper Leuchtturm1917 uses is more absorbent and causes more bleedthrough with a variety of inks. Leuchtturm1917 came out with a 120gsm paper (in dot grid only) which is supposedly better for fountain pen inks. I have not personally tried it yet, perhaps one day…

    Love the color, I wonder if the ink would also billed through on Rhodia paper? What is the gsm of this paper?

      Leuctturm1917 uses 80gsm paper, which is same as Rhodia. I did a test on Rhodia paper using the same ink last year: https://inkcrediblecolours.com/2021/09/30/diamine-eau-de-nil-rhodia/ The result is a little feathering and a little bleedthrough (not as much as Leuchtturm1917).
