Paper Types I Keep in Stock, Cutting Folio Sheets, Printing and Binding Books, Doing Work

[@SIRSANDMAN0]

I could be studying for my finals right now. Instead, I'm listening to this guy talk about paper for 12 minutes

[@ttms]

I just started using 16pt c2s tango, but am switching to 130# Kelly paper brand. I do very little text stuff, mostly cover. The issue I'm having is finding a good glossy cover. I use dull/satin as my "matte" option and the glossy I've found looks almost identical. Paper has been one of the hardest things to pick as a new printer owner. Thanks for sharing what you do.

[@justaprinter]

I have found that most of my customers look at the price and quality of printing. They rarely inspect/complain about the paper.

[@yourpress]

Very good I am working on setting up my house stock this was helpful

[@justaprinter]

Awesome!

[@tassie7325]

I'm doing OK with the binge viewing to catch up and still find this as fascinating as the first one I saw. I wouldn't mind seeing some sketches/images with an explanation of how you cut the sheets down to get the sizes you want with the grain going in the preferred direction. I'm sure that for all the guys in the printing industry, your explanations are perfectly fine. But as a non printer guy, I keep getting lost without the aid of visuals. Cheers from Australia.

[@justaprinter]

Great idea, I'll have to do that. Thanks Mick.

@@justaprinter I look forward to getting a better understanding of the complexities of your profession.

You can get Futura 18 x 12 or 19 x 13 #100 Gloss text or #80. It is the only cut sheet gloss text to come short grain. We use it all the the time for perfect bound books. Also there is a perfect bound glue by Spiel in NY that works as good a PUR glue. It is amazing you can even use on long grain and the pages stay. But it is costly $14.00 per lbs

[@justaprinter]

Really? I didn't realize you can get that short grain. Thanks!

where can u buy this from?

[@2dazedsoulz320]

What if I want to print pdf from a book and want to stick into those clear sheets & put in binder after. What paper would you recommend? I want something a little thicker than normal printer paper. Can an at home printer print on Gloss paper?

[@pondorbox]

Wow that's a lot of paper stock you have there !! I need to watch this video 3 times to grab everything since US and EU standards and sizes are not the same.

[@justaprinter]

Yeah, I though about that. Sizes and weights are certainly different.

[@HenryLoenwind]

@@justaprinter Not just that, I was a bit surprised that 3/4 of paper you have for books wasn't cream-colored.

Hi! What kind of paper would you recommend for either a gloss or matte hard cover children’s book? It will roughly be about 8.5x11 with large pictures inside. I’m having trouble picking out paper and was hoping you would have some suggestions, ty 😁👍🏻✨

[@davidlee2822]

Hi, This was very helpful. Would you advise me? I want to print a 9"X6", 960 page novel using adobe InDesign CS5. No Color! No bleed! I want the best possible quality paper brand to buy from that will really look high class, the wisest weight for 960 pages, printed both sides, and how large of sheets to order. Thank you for sharing. It's most impressive. I admire you!

[@hoaxuan4336]

[@hamrammr1]

Great video again! Im trying to print my own paperback books at home with basic equipment. What paper would you advise to use to best replicate paperback paper stock?

Hi Dan, can you share what laminator make and model you use?

[@danquishashort-rockmore9887]

Great video! What would u recommend for planner making with little art work? Nothing too cheapy like 20lb copy paper but not as heavy as card stock

[@justaprinter]

80lb uncoated text would be nice for that.

[@TRUTHSEEKER-mh4jv]

Is 69lb uncoated text good to use on a laser printer and for binding a book of 500 plus pages yourself? And what adhesive would you recommend and would markers bleed through from highlighting? Thank you enjoyed your shop, really nice

[@justaprinter]

I would suggest a 70lb paper or maybe 80 if you are concerned of bleedthrough., unsure of adhesive for a DIY project.

[@halexp]

ur the best

[@justaprinter]

Thanks!

[@halexp]

i should probabably just replace the manual feed tray, or?

[@justaprinter]

I’m not sure

Probably a 70 or 80lb text. Really whatever you want and/or what your printer can print.

[@Atentoamusicamedianews1]

[@micahharman1493]

What brand do you buy your 60 pound text uncoated from.

[@justaprinter]
