Limited Papers Has Smooth Paper For Printing

Identifying smooth paper for writing or desktop printing is not as easy as it sounds. Consumers often take smooth paper for granted because cut-size bond is packed flat and wrinkle-free. This condition, however, can be also be true of coarse and textured papers. At Limited Papers, our knowledgeable staff can explain the unique aspects of smooth paper as well as its uses.

The Elements of Smooth Paper

Smooth is most easily defined in contrast to what it is not. In the paper industry, finish texture plays a large role in defining paper type and appropriateness for intended use. Standard bond or heavyweight paper with a raised surface, such as Classic printer paper in a laid or linen pattern, is the opposite of smooth. It is used to produce a softer, more traditional look to printed items.

Smooth paper, such as that in the Classic Crest line, has a sleek feel and a starker appearance. A series of rollers increases its smoothness during manufacturing. Because it provides more contrast with dark ink, smooth paper is frequently used with typical print or text jobs in which easy reading is the goal.

Use text or smooth heavyweight paper for:

• Large-scale document reproduction
• Communications
• Brochures
• Graphics
• Reports

Classic printer paper is complemented by matching envelopes, so your total package will have the same crisp read and feel.
