Developing Ortho-Litho Film as continuous tone:

TRY: Tektol 1:9
TRY: "I've been messing around with lith film, Arista and Kodak, in my Century and Speed. I shoot it at ISO 6 (not a typo, it's slow film) and develop it in Rodinal at 1:150 dilution. I use 11X14 tray so I don't have to "card shuffle" and scratch the thin emulsion. I agitate once every minute only. Around 7 to 8 min at 68F seems to work. You can watch it under the red safelight. You can also cut film to size under a red safelight. 

1:150 is really dilute, so the developer exhausts quickly, and has to be replaced more often than stronger dilutions. The weak dilution controls the contrast build-up and the negs look quite good. Use a plain water stop as an acid stop sometimes gives pinholes in the thin emulsion. The negs look thin, but give good prints. D76 1:3 works too, but builds contrast faster. (I like the Rodinal better) Enjoy." (from graflex.org)
