Frequently asked questions

Why is this the default on many flyers?
It balances opacity, color pop, and cost for volume handouts better than ultra-light 80 lb or heavy cover stocks.

All paper types

The note said thick card, and two different stocks could have matched

An order note said thick card and nothing else. Two stocks could have matched that phrase, and they print and feel different. We built the paper gallery so a vague word can be matched to the real sheet and to the products that use it.

Browse it yourself for free before you pick a stock. Send the file with the note and we name the sheet for you at no charge. You can still feel that sheet in the sample kit. Vague paper words are why this gallery exists.

Is this paper gallery what 55printing uses when quoting stock?

Yes. We use it to match everyday words like thick card or foldable flyer to stocks we actually print. We keep updating which products use each sheet, and we pair the gallery with the sample kit so you can feel the same family of paper.

Paper choice sits next to samples, Design Studio, and file tools

After you pick a stock you may still need a sample kit, a guideline file, or a Word-to-PDF. Those are the same tools we use after the gallery conversation. We keep them all improving.
