Title: Heavy fine art paper
Post by: jjlphoto on May 27, 2009, 03:37:59 pm

I'm looking at getting some paper samples of a very heavy double sided paper to print out some business cards on. Prefer one of the fine-art stocks. So far, I've seen Crane Museo II @ 365gsm, and Moab Entrada @ 300gsm. Hahnemuhle has PhotoRag Duo @ 276gsm, but that's getting a bit light.

I printed some nice cards using Epson FA Velvet printed the inkjet side normally, use a plain paper setting on the noncoated side black text only in my case and the results were excellent. Clients liked the VFA surface and there was no bleeding on the inside text.
