Polar Matte 230 Double-sided Greeting Card Details & Information

Description

Red River Paper Polar Matte 230 Double-Sided greeting cards combine professional photo matte quality with the convenience of pre-scored, ready-to-fold card stock.

Perfect On Epson Et8550

Katelyn Sweigart, Mar 13, 2026

Didn't make postcards, but wedding invitations. One side had our photo; the other side had an invitation we designed. Printed the photo borderless using the Epson's Photo software, and then printed the invitation with a pdf viewer. Bothe came out clean, vibrant, and with no feed issues.

Great Paper
