Sterling and Elegance are different paper stocks. Regular or Platinum 
are probably different coatings. Not sure what the difference between 
Sterling and Sterling Rag are, must be the first is a wood pulp 
paper. I've used the regular thin Sterling, it's a decent paper. 
Elegance didn't have the kind of dmax that I wanted, so I never went 
past the testing phase, and I haven't tested all those new papers so 
no comment.
