Trays for prints

I'm not an expert by any means, but I've read that this aspect of RC paper no longer really holds true.
 
I've only done a few prints on FB papers. I've found the print looks like a pretzel after its been dried. I don't have a press... how can I get the damn thing to stay flat? This isn't a problem with RC papers :)
 
This shouldn't be a problem with double weight paper. Just be careful not to get any sharp bends in them while drying. Dry them face down on screens. They'll have a bit of curl, most likely. When they're dry stack them face to face, back to back, and leave them under some heavy books over night.
 
I picked up packet of new Kentmere FB paper a couple of weeks ago. I haven't had a chance to print some yet... I'll do so soon though! Hopefully it won't look like a piece of papyrus like the last time I used FB paper.
