Good point Kitty! You can use non-fluorescent light blue paper and go over
it with clear nail polish.

You may remember that I print my display labels on that kind of paper with a
canon buble jet printer and a BC 29-F cartridge. The problem is that the ink
fades after 5 years or so. I really should get a better fluorescent ink for
this purpose.
