Digital BW, The Print

Besides Red River, can anyone suggest a supplier that offers square dimensioned photo inkjet card stock? I'm now using Red River Pecos River Gloss but I find their paper is too flimsy and curls too easily. The ideal would be something like Canson Platine Fibre or Baryta with a final folded size of about 6” x 6”.

Thanks

http://www.on-linepaper.co.uk in the UK will cut paper for you. I have had cards made from HPR Baryta, and Ilford GFS. The H paper is better for printing on the reverse side. They are really helpful.

Cheers,

Thanks, folks. I'd still prefer paper that’s ready to use, but I'll keep the paper cutting option in mind.

Mark -

Here's a faster way to print your cards, even though there's a bit more work at the back end of the project:

Your can print multiple files on a larger sheet of paper -- I print 4 - 5 1/2 X8 1/2 inch cards on a sheet of 
13 X 19 paper, and space them so you can cut them to give you a 5 1/2 X 4 1/4  card which folds in 
half.  The fold is the blank and gives you the inside to write a message (or it can be blank on the outside,
with the photo on the inside.

Anyway, the process is fast once you make the setup, and you'll have your choice of many different papers. 
I use 315 gram  Photo Rag.  You will have to score the paper where the fold is, with a straight edge. 

Once you've done this a couple times, you'll wonder why you've every wanted to cut the paper first - much 
more work and trouble with multiple feeds to the printer.

Hello Mark,

Museo offers matte, two-sided printable, pre scored cards with envelopes in a square format. I have used these cards in several formats. The profile leaves something to be desired, but the paper is elegant.

Please note that square format cards require extra postage. They are expensive to mail. 

Good luck!

Christy
