  Very interesting. So far, the only site I've found which comments
  is fastback:
    http://www.fastbackbooks.com/inkjetpapers.htm
  who state that
  o use matte instead of glossy for ease of binding
  o don't use OB, including EEM
  o use < 205gsm

  they recommend
  - PremierArt Matte Scrapbook Photo Paper for Epson
  - Ilford Galerie Multi Purpose InkJet Paper
  - Ilford Galerie Smooth Heavyweight Paper
  - Lumijet Portfolio Series Double-Sided Matte

  I found some comments on Mitsubishi papers as well (can't find
  the positive comments but the paper is at:
    http://www.camcor.com/cgi-bin/bcatalog.cgi/area=dig&id=1048609354
  and
    http://www.inkjetart.com/photo_papers/mitsubishi.html
    - Mitsubishi Diamond Jet Dual-Sided Matte

  I notice Ilford has a couple of new Smooth that look possible:
  - Smooth Heavyweight Matte DS

  http://www.ilford.com/html/us_english/prod_html/galerie/htm/prod/hwm.htm
  - and for the gloss, single-sided fans, Smooth High Gloss

  http://www.ilford.com/html/us_english/prod_html/galerie/htm/prod/shg.htm

  Unfortunately, getting hold of any of these from Australia seems hard
  :-(

  Thanks
  Robert
