Jarod, Many years ago, there was a program called "PROLITH" that modeled exposure and development simulations for positive novalac photoresists. Below is a reference to a paper that introduced it. A few years after it was introduced they tried to market it commercially, and I don't know the current status. You may be able to trace down the author, Chris Mack. Mack C.
