Review: Good stuff for this hobby typist - Really nice paper, bought it for use in some antique typewriters. Thick and sturdy enough to stand up to the job, thin enough to pass through some crunchy old machines without hanging up, nice and textural but still closer to paper than card stock. Some inks will bleed through still, but that seems more dependent on the ink. The paper is more resistant than your average copy paper, looks and feels nice, I like it.
Review: Professional touch - Excellent for not only resumes, but for letters. It states professional. I would buy it again.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Has anyone written on this paper with a fountain pen ?**
A: I have, and it was fine with both a Fine and a Stub nib, both inked with fairly wet inks (Diamine Polar Glow and Montverde California Teal). No feathering or bleedthrough, and it's smooth enough that my nib didn't drag or scratch. There was a bit of ghosting, but this paper is thin enough that you can see through it to the page behind, so that's to be expected.

**Q: Whats the difference between this and the southworth fine business paper, 25% cotton, 20 lb, white, 500 sheets (403c)?**
A: The 24 lb. paper is a little thicker and heavier paper than the 20 lb. For our office use these days I use the 20 lb. for letterhead because it is light, and the 24 lb. (in ivory and white) for important documents such as Last Wills that will be around for a while and should have a little more heft to them.  Sometimes if I have a sheet of 20 lb. 25% Cotton Business Paper sitting on my desk, I have to pick it up to look for the watermark to make sure it's the "good" paper and not just a sheet of regular all-purpose paper, if that gives you an idea of the weight. The 24 lb. paper has a slightly different finish than the 20 lb. and occasionally I have a little bleed with the 24 lb. when I use a large, bold font like 16 point with my old Dell inkjet printer. When I print in 12 point Times New Roman, which is what I use most of the time, I have no bleed. (I have no bleed with the 100% cotton 24 lb. paper.) I hope this helps. Any more questions, please feel free to ask.

**Q: If you print front and back, does one side show through the other? Thanks!**
A: No.

**Q: Whats the difference between natural, and the white color of the paper? Is one better for something else?**
A: "Natural" is basically a very light shade of ivory, definitely not a bright white like bleached white paper.  Personally, I find ivory "too yellow" for really any purpose, but I do prefer the somewhat warmer color "natural" for most correspondence and resumes, and white for "documents", broadly speaking.  In my optinion, white is much better for most printing that could involve color, unless you're careful to match the color(s) used to the yellow tones of natural and cetainly ivory paper.
