I was taught to sign in pencil. Until recently I had photos taken of me as a baby by a local photographer in Wimbledon that were signed in pencil and the inscription is visible and the print is still good.

I have been signing my prints in pencil, and the prints are behind glass. But I now have to send some prints, and am worried about smudging the signature. I know an inked signature won't smudge, but will it compromise the archival property? What do others do? -yoram
