I use Polar Matte Double Sided for custom RFQ's we present to high end customers, the paper is so effective in terms of color delivery and texture, I get comments on it constantly. I run all my prints on an Epson Stylus Pro 4900 (With Epson Ink).

I absolutely love these cards. The paper feels fantastic and holds the color from my Canon Pro 1000 very nicely.

Superb Greeting Cards

CAK, Oct 23, 2022

I've been searching for months for white double-sided greeting cards since my original supplier discontinued my previous cards. I'm more than pleased to have discovered the papers of Red River Paper, more especially the 60lb double-sided greeting cards. The cards print true color on my Canon TR7020. The results are fantastic! I live in western Canada and can also vouch for the very good service and delivery from Red River Paper.

Crisp, clear reproduction with this inkjet stock

Amanda, Sep 05, 2022 - https://thehumblybumblybear.com

This is a sturdy sheet that does a beautiful job on my inkjet printer. I love that it is double sided. I am a graphic designer and I do a lot of double sided work. Great coverage. The printing is so crisp and clear on this sheet. Such an improvement over many paper stocks I've previously tried.

My new go-to greeting card stock

Michael Scammon, Jul 29, 2022

I tried the 60# Polar Matte Double-sided Greeting Card stock instead of my usual Aurora Art White 300. I found the 60# Polar Matte was a significant improvement on my Epson P600 - it fed flawlessly (no need to keep cleaning the rollers) even after several dozen card printings. This is now my go-to greeting card stock going forward. Very, very happy with this.

Great Photo Paper

Shirley Kathan-Sayess, Jun 17, 2022

I use Red River Paper in the junk journals (handmade heirloom books) that I make. The digitals and photographs that I use print beautifully with rich color and an almost satin smooth finish.

Great paper

Ty Jeter, Jun 15, 2022 - Http://www.colorblindartist.net

I use this paper for my art prints which I sell at Comic cons. The colors are vibrant and explode off this paper. The black are also super rich.

Fantastic Art Prints

Chrissy Draper, Jun 10, 2022 - www.heedfullyyours.com

The double sided Art Matte paper has been wonderful for printing my illustrations. The color pops, and could pass for my original colored pencil and ink work. I really love this option, especially the crisp, smooth look it produces. Thank you!

Superb paper for greeting cards

Lee W, Jun 08, 2022

All of the Red River papers are excellent, and this one is no exception. Pigment inks look beautiful when printed on it, and the profiles provided by the company are perfect. Superb quality all around!
