Loading a developing tank - emulsion side in or out

from Peter Schauss (schauss@worldnet.att.net)
When I load a developing tank (stainless reel type) I roll the film on the way it naturally curves coming off of the spool in the casset (35 mm). This puts the emulsion side toward the center of the reel.

I've been having a good deal of trouble with my film curling after I develop it. I tried drying it with varying amounts of weight, but this does not seem to solve the problem. Now I am wondering if I wound it on the developing tank reel with the emulsion side out, would I get less curl?

Any suggestions?

thanks, Peter Schauss
