That is true that they are not emulsion based and are printed, and will not fade the same way that other film types will, but they still fade. Just the way a print in a magazine can fade over time. Dyes are still chemicals and react to heat and light, both of which are there in extremes in carbon arc and other forms of 35mm projection.

For our purposes the fade will be so small as not to be an issue.
