Palo Duro SoftGloss Rag: Perfect for Landscapes and Cool-Temp Portraits
I have been using Canson Infinity Baryta Prestige paper for my prints (Canon Pro 1000 printer). The paper is simply gorgeous. I came across Red River and tried their Sample Kit. When I tested the SoftGloss Rag on my test print sheet the color and black and white were a match with the Canson. In particular, the Black and White image I test with (a shot of the Brooklyn Bridge and Lower Manhattan taken from the Manhattan Bridge on a cloudy, hot summer's day), which has zones 1-9 from black to white, was gorgeous. There is one building that is in Zone 2--which one begins to see detail in the dark zone--was perfect. The 310 gsm weight is nice and heavy, which I prefer, and the soft gloss emits the right texture for a beautiful print. What sets the paper apart, for me, are the different sizes. My preference for selling prints is either 9" x 13" (I print 8 x 12) and the 17" x 25" (I print 16 x 24). (I have not tested the latter size yet). This paper is gorgeous and a perfect match for my Canon printer. I do have one important criticism. My box of 9" x 13" paper had no protective bag for the paper. This is expensive paper and should be treated as such. I would deduct a star for the packaging, but I do not want to take anything away from the quality of the paper itself.

professionals choice
i make my full time income from the sales of my photography and it must look like the price I ask for each work of art and be something the can not get down the road or print at home. The paper selections here provide the look I must have to stay in business since 1947. Thanks

Metallic Luster Paper
I originally tried the glossy metallic. Excellent quality, but the Luster stood out to me. It provided the texture of luster with a little more gloss than traditional luster, and nothing beats that metallic look in my opinion. Open a competitors pack and smell it, then smell what Red River Paper has to offer. I know it sounds weird, but that super chemical smell I found on my OEM paper is horrible. Their branding is all over the back of the paper.... Red River Paper just does it right.

Art Papers Sample Kit Pefect
I have an upcoming first time gallery exhibit and I needed to determine the best paper for my landscape photos. The Art Papers sample kit was perfect - free with shipping, nice selection, good sizes (8.5x11), and print profile recommendations. I ended up selecting the Palo Duro Smooth Rag 310.

Awesome Paper
Great paper, so many different one to choose, it's hard to decide. I got a few sample packs and will definitely be ordering some different types. Prints beautifully.

32# DS matt Best type of paper on the planet. We use it for flyers/posters and programs. Looks tack sharp, lots of pop and does not curl. My PIXMA Pro-100 loves it as embedded photos or graphics are spot on!

Best Selection - Best Quality
I have been very satisfied with Red River papers. I am especially pleased with the variety of papers Red River offers. Also, I make greeting cards for a hobby -- Red River has the best selection of cards, and the best quality, that I have found.
