Ilford Premium Matt Duo Reviews
Gets the job done
I mean it's paper, you know what you're getting. I used this to produce tape J-cards and it holds up really well. The sheet takes the trimmer blade with ease and doesn't fray or flake when folded.
Good for a small book
This paper is long-grained, meaning its grain runs parallel to the long edge. Bind it parallel to that edge, making a book about 6 3/8 x 9 3/8 after trimming. Just use a 4-page imposed layout on each side, fold parallel to the short edge, fold again perpendicular to that, bind, trim off the first fold, and trim the remaining edges to square it up. It works great, and I think this is how this paper is intended to be used. Four stars because it's not acid-free, but that isn't as important for a book. NOTE: The colors are INTENTIONALLY MUTED in the attached image. I am trying for a sun-faded aesthetic for this project. They DO NOT represent what the paper is capable of.
