Genealogical papers

I print many papers for the society and easy to read. Also print newsletters to mail to members and family. The paper is great since it does not turn yellow. I hope my papers will last a long time for my family. More people should put papers together on their family so the past will not get lost.
Sometimes you want a heavier weight paper without going to cardstock. This paper is particularly attractive for creating documents that will be retained for repeated use and reference because it's sturdier than most without being so thick as to create an overly weighty total document. But most important is that the texture is quite smooth while still being a matte finish -- eliminates the hard-to-read reflective quality of a glossy finish yet allows printed material and graphics to really pop on the page. The bright white makes a good contrast.
Exceptional copy paper! Others who receive documents printed on this paper comment how impressively bright and heavyweight it is. It's spendy but very very nice.
Use this paper for producing client products such as manuals policy statements and charts and graphs. Handles well in my Epson Artisan 810 printer and almost never jams. While the weight is good I sometimes feel it is too light especially when producing small poster-type documents (such as signs) that will be hung in a workplace (usually have to put the pages in a plastic sleeve for protection). Even though this is a good product I believe that the price is too high especially for a Staples brand product.
