Phatz, what're you making that you need the lighter paper?

Maybe a tiny shrunken set?

A friend of mine whose family used to own a print shop told me that 80# cover stock was as thick as 110# card stock. And it has a slicker surface, so it shows high rez grfx really well.... So I intended to make a FirstLight out of it...

I don't even know what cover stock is!

I can understand how a slicker surface could be beneficial towards hi-res graphics and mechanical subject lke FL, though.

Off topic already (as usual :roll:

) but I was looking at the bridge-floor panels and wondering if anyone had tried printing on silver-toned card?

Dumb? Nothing new there then. :wink:

I don't know where to find cover stock, but my professional printer uses it for my printing, and I can tell you that 80# cover stock is slightly heavier than 110# card stock.

When you can't run anymore, you crawl. When you can't crawl, find someone to carry you.
