Outstanding paper

Liese A Ricketts, Mar 05, 2026

A perfect gloss that enhances the sharpness of the image!

Color Accuracy

Peter Maholchic, Feb 23, 2026

The paper quality is great ...

RRP 230 is the Perfect BACK COVER Page!

Chuck Dugan, Feb 19, 2026

The final piece of my AAAZ annual Astronomy Calendar is the BACK Cover page. Lighter than the Front, but Heavier than the internal pages, the BACK Cover must also have a printable Matte finish for easy markup on one side. The other side however sports my company Logo & Banner, and the non-smudge GLOSS finish makes the perfect final impression.
