I've used Legion Paper for some time and ordered it through Adorama, but the Moab Juniper Baryta has been on backorder for quite awhile now. I'd ordered a few things from Red River in the past and had great experiences, but I found myself needing to find a more permanent replacement paper for fine art prints. I found what I needed with Red River Paper. There are several wonderful options, and I've also ordered their scored greeting card paper which is also great, but I'm really liking the Palo Duro Softgloss. The texture, sheen, and weight of this paper are similar to what I'm used to, and I like being able to purchase 17x25 sheets. This allows me to make 16x24 prints with my Epson P800 without needing to use the roll paper and adapter. It saves me time and money. Additionally, shipping with Red River is very fast and Customer Service is top notch. Nice that for me, as a Texas resident, it's also semi-local. Very very pleased with RR Paper.
Papers with the Archival designtation can take many forms. They can be glossy, matte, canvas, or an artistic product. These papers are acid free, lignin free and can be made of virgin tree fiber (alpha cellulose) or 25-100% cotton rag. They are likely to have optical or fluorescent brightening agents (OBAs) - chemicals that make the paper appear brighter white. Presence of OBAs does not indicate your image will fade faster. It does predict a slow change in the white point of your paper, especially if it is displayed without UV filter glass or acrylic.

Photographic Grade Paper
Photo Grade products are designed to look and feel like modern photo lab paper. Most photo grade media are resin coated, which means they have a paper core covered by a thin layer of polyethelene (plastic) . Plastic gives the paper its photo feel, stability (flatness), water resistance, handling resistance, and excellent feed consistency.
Prints on photo grade media are stable over long periods. With pigment inks in a protected environment, you can see up to 80 years on-display life. All RC papers are Photo Grade for two reasons. Plastic content is not technically archival by museum standards. Also, the inkjet coating of all RC papers is slightly acidic. It facilitates instant drying and does not actually change the stability of your inks over time. Virtually all RC papers have optical brightening agents (OBAs).
