What to Look for?

Paper Rigidity


Thinner paper will fold better on itself multiple times, while thicker paper offers a sturdier feel and more stability for larger printed pieces.

Paper Coating

- Gloss Coating is great for marketing materials and consumer facing products.
- Color Copy excels with crisp high definition full color images.
- Uncoated Stock is perfect for text pages and technical documentation

Show-Through


Thicker paper will also have less "show through" and should be taken into consideration for multiple page items, especially in color.
