Good Paper but shy 12 sheets

I was using this paper to print a membership directory for an organization I belong to. I choose it because it is a heavier paper and would stand up better to handling. Overall I am very please with the quality of the product. My problem is that the package said it contained 300 sheet. I expected to be able to print 60 copies of the directory as each copy only used 5 pieces of paper. It turns out the package only contains 288 sheets and I was only able to print 57 complete copies of the directory. I wish the sheet count on the package reflected the correct number of sheets in the package.
This paper is really fine for use on customer estimates invoices and statements. It is sturdy and leaves the customer with an impression you are running a very professional company. It holds up well in both laser printers and in inkjet printers. For me it feeds in the printer without ever jamming. It easily folds for placement in mailing envelopes to customers. I've been using this paper for my contact with customers and it always gets positive comments from them. I like the ivory color because it resembles a type of parchment paper that gives a professional look.
It was for a double sided HOA Newsletter which is hand delivered. The greater thickness allowed it to be rolled up and placed next to door handle without falling.
I use this to print conductor scores. The conductors appreciate the eye ease (from the ivory color) and are able to turn pages far more quickly and accurately than on 20 lb. paper.
