Dbl sided printing problem
I am making a "Program" for a Barbershop Chorus concert
using MS Publisher in the "Catalog" mode (which prints both sides of course.) I cannot seem to find out what kind of paper I can get (short of photo imaging paper) that is opaque enuff to prevent the backside of a page from showing through the "white areas" of the front side. It's not a bleed-through, it's just that the paper is to darn translucent. I am using 24 lb inkjet paper with an inkjet printer. I am sure this is anything but a new problem, but I have not found anything in the Google archives that discusses it either. TIA....Ed in Nebr. |

I'd suggest talking to a reputable printer in your area.

No clue - I don't do metric paper. Let me see if I can find out.
I have some 60lb paper that says 89gsm and some 20 lb paper that says 75gsm, so it could be. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Cerridwen" wrote in message ...

Ed,
I use Exact® Opaque White #55581 rated at 70 lb - (Text - 105 g/m²) paper aprox $6.50 per 500 sheets for our newsletter. I tri-fold, glue and stamp. It works very well for our needs. Another thing you can try is adjust the amount of ink flow. Properties, Advanced Tab, Ink Volume. Mine is set on the lowest volume. -- Don -------- Vancouver, USA - One of the great cities in one of the 45+ countries in the Americas! "Ed" wrote in message ...

Thanks to all.....looks like I need to round up some much
heavier-wt paper and then adjust my ink flow downward (maybe that should be "gold" flow downward. Didn't know I could do that.....sounds like a $ saver for routine jobs that don't need to be dripping wet Regards, Ed -----Original Message----- I am making a "Program" for a Barbershop Chorus concert using MS Publisher in the "Catalog" mode (which prints both sides of course.)
