We use a variety of colors of paper in our office to differentiate between different forms - goldenrod is one of my favorites. It is not TOO bright; text is still easy to read.
There were marks on about half the pieces of paper in the package. Was printing something important that others would be reading and had to print pages over because of the marks. Finally found myself going through the package to take out the marked paper. Only about half the package was good to use.
This paper is great if you use color to organize your office. The blue is soft on the eyes and easy to read. Sometimes colored paper is too overpowering but this is just right. Stands out just enough. It is a little thin for important documents but for reports that are going to be filed away it is perfect. Great price.
