This chart summarizes the characteristics of papers for digital color copying and printing. It is not intended to be an exclusive guide to ordering paper. Rather, use it to create new ideas for using papers in jobs. Remember, not all paper in a grade comes in every combination of size, weight, and/or finish.
The size and weight combination of Xerox papers are underlined and in bold face type.
