Response to higher acutance variant of divided d- 76 ?

Simple answer: I don't think so.

Try HP5+ which has higher accutance (in my opinion). Delta 400 is also very good.

One simple way to increase accutance is to overdevelop a bit. Try carefully overdevelop to print well on 1/2 to 1 grade softer paper, in things like Perceptol 1+1 or 1+3. D-76 without hydroquinone is pretty good too. If you want to squeeze a bit more sharpness, try ascorbate version of D-76d, which I put up the formula on this site a while ago. D-23 is all right, but then why not one modification to Perceptol or D-76H?
