Thanks for the feedback Bill. I am concerned with how well the paper 
will feed through the printer. But in general, I want a heavier 
paper. I've done some proofing on Heavyweight Matte and while the 
prints look fairly good, the feel and weight of the paper leaves 
something to be desired. I would, however, stick with a lighter 
weight paper if it meant less problems with printing.

Thanks again,

Mark
