What is tranparent paper?

Transparent is a term given to paper you can see through. Transparent paper is usually patterned and frosted and comes in many colors. It is also called "vellum".

Will the paper go through my home printer?

Printers vary a lot and we recommend testing a few sheets before committing to a big order Most non-transparent papers will happily travel through an inkjet printer though rough surfaces may give varying result.

Some papers will bleed and some inks may not adhere well on metallic, shiny or synthetic surfaces. Laser printers demand special papers that can withstand the high temperatures when fusing toner to them. Most smooth papers will go through a laser printer as will our whole range of transparent papers.

Can I order single sheets of paper to try?

We have had to set a minimum order for any one type of paper, usually 10 sheets but are happy to sell a single sheet for trial printing. Please ask if you would like further information about a paper.

When I looked at papers in your online shop on my work computer they appear a different shade to the ones on my home one. How can I tell which shade they are?

Colors can look different on different computer monitors depending on the type of monitor and settings such as brightness and contrast.

Please use the colors shown and their names as a guide rather than exact representation of the colors.

If you would like help choosing your color or you require precise color matching, please request a sample or send your sample to us by post.
