I use this. It's archival (when paired with pigment based, and not dye based inks). http://mobile.adorama.com/IESS041605.html Seems pricey, but 100 sheets gets you 200 UGC covers or 300 DS case covers when trimmed down to 8.5x13. |

You may find this topic helpful. http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=18116.0 Here is TDIRunner's paper comparison picture. --- Quote from: TDIRunner on September 18, 2014, 11:16:44 PM ---Some of you might want to hit me for waiting this long, but I finally bought some good quality paper. The difference really is amazing. I'll probably replace all of my covers eventually, but I'm not in a big rush. I'm mostly concerned with using the better quality stuff going forward. Red River 50 lb. Premium Matte Double Sided 8.5x11 The new stuff is on the right (just in case you couldn't tell :P) The difference in person is about a thousand times better than what the pictures are showing (and I think the pictures show a lot). --- End quote --- So that is good for inkjet. But the one I'm using now is a laser printer. What's the best paper for a laser printer? --- End quote --- |

Didn't realize a word document would fix it. --- End quote --- I'm very happy I was able to help you, TheAristocrat0! If you decide to have the employees print the covers for you, you can speed things up by inserting all your covers into Word documents before you go. Then, they can print all the pages at once. |

I was at my local Staples the other day and they have those large cutters where you pull the blade down like a lever. I may get a smaller one since I want to design my own covers. |
