Paul,

Straight but inclining, high end to the right, so warmer.

Measured the 310gsm on a black tablet with the Spectrocam:

Lab 96.03  0.16 1.63

the 210gsm

Lab 95.87 0.02  0.80


There's a very rough page on my site with the paper white measurements 
of more papers. This should become a more sophisticated page when my 
youngest son has more time and it is hard to tell when that happens. 
More like Laszlo Pusztai's page. But I did measure more of the papers: 
A1 is the measurement on the print side and the paper put on a natural 
white matt board, A2 on the print side too but the paper on a black 
tablet, A3 the backside of the paper and the paper on a black tablet. 
All three are averaged numbers of 16 measurements in scan mode style. 
The differences tell something about where the OBAs are located, how 
opaque the paper is, etc.
