Choosing the right paper stock is one of the most important decisions in any printing project. The paper you select impacts the appearance, durability, readability, and overall quality of the final product. At Copies America, we offer a wide variety of paper weights, colors, and finishes to meet the needs of everyday printing, professional marketing materials, and specialty applications.
Most paper options are identified by weight, such as 70# text or 100# cover. In some cases, especially with thicker stocks, paper is measured in points (pt), which refers to thickness. One point equals one thousandth of an inch. For example, 8pt paper measures .008 inches thick, while 12pt cover stock measures .012 inches.
You may also see GSM (grams per square meter), a metric measurement commonly used in offset printing. If you need GSM values or assistance selecting the right paper for your project, our team is happy to help.
