This does seem like a plausible alternative Bob. I may try it too.

Christopher,

In an earlier post re:digital negatives, I too pointed out that you can make
acceptable film negatives using the format of your choice, and photographing
an inkjet positive. 

From my earlier post:  "the point I was
making was that you can use Photoshop to print a positive image, color or
b&w, and do all the retouching and curve altering you would do to produce an
inkjet negative.  I have an Ansco(maybe a 1930 build)5x7.  I've used it, and
smaller formats to copy inkjet printed positive images, resulting in
negatives suitable for contact prints OR enlarging.  I don't have to worry
about the ink smudging on my negative
since it is on silver film.   Now, I know that's not
what everyone else is doing, but it works similar, and if I had an 8x10
camera, or a 16x20 camera as a friend does, I could make larger film
negatives for alternative or contact prints."

The fact is that it works well.
