Introduction

Paper weight indicates how thick and sturdy each sheet feels, guiding choices for notes, prints, or craft projects.

  • Higher GSM values resist show-through and handle ink better
  • Lighter sheets feed smoothly through most home printers
  • Finish (matte, coated, or textured) changes pen glide and color vibrancy

Select the right weight for crisp results every time.

FAQs

Grams per square meter measures paper density. Higher numbers equal thicker, more opaque sheets.

60-80 GSM papers are light, economical, and suitable for most writing or black-and-white printing.

Many home printers accept up to 200 GSM. Check your manual and use the rear feed tray for thicker stock.

Heavier coated sheets reduce ink absorption and produce sharper photos with less bleed.

Multiply GSM by 0.67 to estimate lb weight, or divide lb by 0.67 to find GSM.
