Red River Paper Company Reviews

I have been creating art to print on greeting cards for decades. At first - back in the "80's" there just were not a lot of options. I did some nice drawings, took them to a printer and had a few thousand printed. Luckily they sold. Over the years I had more and more art for cards, but less people bought any particular scene. I started to use my ink jet printer and just used the same stock the printers did. Now I am seeing better paper that works with my inkjet printer that Red River offers. I love their tutorials, and how they explain how to maintain an inkjet printer. The new cards I am printing on Polar Matte are just as beautiful, if not more so , than the cards I used to have printed on big offset presses by the thousands. But now I can offer my customers more variety and use more of the "just in time" inventory keeping. The old way was not sustainable. I hope to be doing more cards as time goes by and Red River Paper will be a part of my team. Thank you

Switched from Polar Matte and love it!! Double sided really saves money!

Red River Paper rocks! You guys have great customer service and excellent products! The reference area with ICC profiles makes printing fool proof, thank you for doing it right!

Red River has been a core support for my art business for years and it has been a perfect wedding. Their papers help produce prints that are so stunning I often get complements at art shows and festivals. Not to mention sales to folks who were not actually looking to buy and yet were moved to do so from the charm of the images. Whenever possible I tell my fellow artists about Red River and their fine papers. Why, because I love passing on good news and helping friends and associates... and this company is a huge help if you publish quality art prints.

I've been ordering Red River paper for over a year now, and am delighted with the quality of the product and the timeliness of the shipments. I'm a watercolor artist, I make my own cards from the paintings and they come out beautifully on 60lb polar matte two-sided blank greeting cards. I've just begun using the the matte photo paper in 8.5 x 11 and 5 x 7 for my reference photos. The matte finish is gorgeous and I can see great detail without the shine and glare of glossy paper. Red River is my go to place for quality and good service.

Since I was introduced to Red River I have never looked back. I have many photography friends so I always buy more than I need so I would introduce them to Red River. Just lately I bought two packets of 13 by 19 photo papers and paid the same shipping charge as one packet. I also buy ink from Red River.

I am so overly pleased with my card stock that I purchased to make photo note cards. I had tried quite a few different papers and these are exquisite!

Red River is simply the best for artist needs not just money wise. These papers are solid and give the best you can expect. I keep coming back to San Gabriel as my choice of papers, and i love Canson Plantine paper but man i am just hard pressed to find an actual difference. So when something is that close then guess what tie goes to more affordable product.

This paper is great! I love that it is 8x10 inches exactly, which is hard to find in a luster finish. The packaging is the best I've ever encountered - all papers should be packaged as such. Shipping is fast as well. I am slowly becoming a converter after being a longtime Epson customer. Such a great find! Love Red River!

Had a volunteer assignment to photograph staff doing their jobs at a national park. To gain their cooperation I needed to show quality photos that I had taken of fellow works knowing I only had travel printer in my camper. Ordered 100 pack of Ultra Glossy 2 in the 5x7 size. After showing workers a dozen prior shots and giving a few away to appreciative subjects, the doors opened to work with others in the park. Not only did this product meet my quality and cost needs, but I was impressed with shipping times, and the care in boxing and padding for this shipment.
