Thanks everyone!
Jun 5, 2011 at 2:09 pm #1745224I 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. :)
Jun 5, 2011 at 2:13 pm #1745226I would like 20 pages.
What would shipping be on that?
thanks

Jun 5, 2011 at 2:39 pm #1745239"It looks like the envelopes will be about 12"x15" or slightly smaller."
How do you get 11×17 paper into a 12×15 envelope?

Jun 5, 2011 at 2:43 pm #1745240Since 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?

Jun 7, 2011 at 7:15 pm #1746269I might be interested depending on price. What would it be for 20 pages or so?

Jun 9, 2011 at 5:01 am #1746863Why 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.

Jun 10, 2011 at 4:28 am #1747366You 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!
