Just thought this might be a help to Thank you SO MUCH for posting this! I've been meaning to order some samples myself, I just keep hemming and hawing about the best content to print on them, and probably making it WAY more complicated than it needs to be. The variance showed up mostly in art and solids, like you can see here on the printed reverse sides. Also, I printed a photo on the front side of all of these and the photos all were perfect. Maybe I will redo this test some day using multiple color swatches. In hindsight, I should have marked down which Pantone color I chose so I could compare at home. #8 = Bright White Semi-Gloss (you can see here how it shifts blue!)įor the record, the one that most closely matched the color I designed was probably #3 or #5 - maybe even #7 although that one seems a tad yellow. #2 = Champagne Shimmer (to be expected that it's browner) Here is a photo of that result (sorry, just took the photo now and it is nighttime and resolution is not so great here in the forum, but it gives you an idea): I created ONE artwork - then ordered THE EXACT SAME THING on 9 different papers. FYI, I printed the backside in a light sage green. I created my 'samples' (with info printed on each one so I could easily tell 'which-is-which') to help me determine which paper type I would want to choose in the end. I was recently preparing for a personal project so I ordered one each of most of the paper types available for invitations (EXCEPT that I did NOT order 3 the brown kraft paper, the ultra-thick or the 'silver tone' paper). Cat - I was interested when reading your post.
