Paper Options

Choosing the right paper for your prints is an important decision.

We offer 12 different styles of paper for prints.

Paper has a three main characteristics: Weight, Finish, and Opacity.

Weight determines the thickness of the paper stock. Our papers come in 80 and 100 pound weights.

The Finish of paper refers to the texture and coating, we offer: Uncoated, Coated and Dull Coated finishes. Uncoated is a raw paper texture, Coated has a satin type finish and Dull Coated is more of a matte finish.

Opacity indicates the amount of light that can pass through the paper stock, we offer Text and Cover opacities. Text is a thinner paper used for lightweight products, flyers and posters. Cover is a thicker paper more like the cover of a high end magazine, used for sturdier products. 12 Point C2S and 15 Point C1S are the thickest papers we offer, with a coating on one side (C1S) or on both sides (C2S).
