Weatherproof Paper... anyone interested? on 06/05/2011 15:09:41 MDT Print View

I might be interested, although I live in the UK, so the postage may be a bit much. What make paper you going for?

Off topic, but I know the photographer who took the photo you are using as your avatar image. :)

"It looks like the envelopes will be about 12"x15" or slightly smaller."

How do you get 11x17 paper into a 12x15 envelope?

Since this paper is lighter than the NG Adventure paper, is it still thick enough to print on both sides without the backside screwing up the view on the side you are looking at?

why not just spray? on 06/09/2011 06:01:00 MDT Print View

Why not just spray the paper you current have with silicone spray? A $7 can will treat way more than 14 pages. That's what I use anyway on my printed pages or copies.

You raise some interesting points. I've never done anything on the scale that you're planning. If you have a can of spray already, you might want to try a few test pages and see how far it can get you. Testing one $6.95 can couldn't hurt and it would be a nice test. Weigh the paper before and after, etc.

Anyway, just throwing out some ideas. Good luck!
