Matt Paper vs Art Paper for Brochures and Bill Books

Matt paper

Matt paper has a soft, non-reflective surface. It is comfortable to read under bright light and easy to write on, which makes it a good choice for bill books, forms and text-heavy brochures.

Art paper

Art paper has a smooth coated surface, so inks sit on top and colours look brighter and sharper. It is the usual choice when photographs and rich colour are the main feature of the piece.

Adding a finish

Either paper can be given a finish. UV or lamination on a cover adds protection and changes the feel - matt for a soft, modern surface, shine for a vivid one.
