Now place plate, black envelope, ct al, in another envelopeof black or orange-colored paper, putting the open end of the first en-velope in first. We may now expose this package to ordinary daylightand artificial light with impunity, and the plate is ready for use in themaking of a radiograph. These envelopes are obtained from the Fig. Showing how tu lian plate by its edges. While in the dark room, before putting the plate in the envelope, wemust note which is the sensitive side, and bear this in mind until theoutside envelope is marked properly to designate it.
