How dark are the lines on the pages...are the lightly ruled or darker lines (distracting)?

I would describe the line color as light gray. In my opinion the rules are just dark enough to clearly delineate the lines and are not distracting.

Much of this goes to personal preference. Fore me, the lines are distinct, but I do not find them distracting or overwhelming to my handwritten text. I say take a chance. A notebook with high quality paper is hard to find these days. It is no Clairfontaine-- has some tooth , but I like it.

Yes & no. It's not totally transparent. (What I most like is clear. I.e. you see your pages as if thru glass.) These are translucent, slightly opaque white-ish, so you CAN identify the contents of the top page, but it's slightly murky, you wouldn't want to read a long document without taking it out. (The clear ones seem hard to find, or have some "feature" I don't want, i.e. a thicker colored border edge so it's much bigger than a sheet of paper.) But if you're sorting a batch of these or looking for a particular file pocket without taking the page out to see what it is, these will do the trick. (Just not as well as clear ones.) Yes & no.

The pages are not lined. However; the pages are a pale yellow and some hard ink bleeds threw a little. The pages are soft and the writer can see the indention of past writing on the following pages, but overall it is a great journal.

I also seem to have one side a little darker. I lowered the setting so it isn't to dark for my liking.

I would not say it is the easiest to read. Typical black on gray makes it a little hard, but you can still read it okay.

Can't say. But I did not see them as being dimming in the descriptions. Sorry.

It illuminates around the keys, but not through the letters. The lettering on the cover doesn't exactly match the placement of the letters on the keys, so my letters are covered up by the colored portion of the colors. I do want to find a new keyboard cover for that reason, but I find that between the light from the screen and what shows through around the keys, I have no problem typing in the pitch darkness.

I'm not sure as I sent it to my granddaughter in Germany. From the picture I assumed it was different color pages. Oh, different types of lettering but the colors are black, gold and silver.

Sometimes it bleeds through the page for me. Most of the time you can just see the outlines of the other page. I use both a papermate and uniball signo 207.

I just uploaded photos. Check customer images of the product of both sheets. I have not used them. Depending on how fast Amazon approves it for posting, check back in a day or two if the photos are available. See how many of each character are there. Different for each so feel free to look for yourself.

I believe they're dark. But some place between sweet and bitter. Perfection in a little circle!!!

There are 34 lines on each face of the page. There is more writable area (20-25% more) than 8.5x11 college rule.

Yes. As I first started them there was little to no line. One day it was darker and then the next day the lines were equally the same color. So yes, out does get darker as you get closer then bam! Its dark so you definitely know.

There are 39 'lines' of dots ... the page is about 20.5 centimetres high, and each row is 5 mm apart. It's a nice notebook!

There's 6 different brightness settings, with the darkest being quite dark. I just checked it out and it doesn't even cast a glow around the clock so you can make out what else may be sitting around next to the clock itself. I took a photo if you're interested, but it doesn't look like I can post it here.

I would like to know this too. Is the screen excessively glossy? I know on some of the higher end ones they make the display very shiny which is incredibly annoying if you have even a dimly lit room. This set is priced in the middle range so I'm wondering how the gloss on the screen is. It's so hard to tell in the stores because they have the screens in a dark area and angled just so.

The pages have a space on each page for a picture/drawing and then several regular lines under. The back page has and "About the Author" page. They are fun little books!
