D is for Duplex

Welcome to our #OKalphabetseries where we visit paper and printing terms daily. Come back each day as we weave our way through the alphabet and share our 110 years of knowledge with you.

D is Duplex Paper
Cover weight papers that are produced by laminating together two different colored pieces of paper - usually of equal basis weight. The process produces stiff, durable cover paper that is heavy and strong with excellent printing and folding characteristics. Many duplex papers are available but custom duplexes can be mill ordered with time and run minimums.
