Is the paper white or recycled /brownish paper. I need a notebook where the grain of the paper is minimal. Need to use it for a fountain pen.

Hi Maggie. The paper is white and works quite well with fountain pens. Just to be sure, I just tested mine with a Pilot Vanishing Point, and a Lamy Safari, both with Noodlers ink. There was no bleeding, and it wrote smoothly. The only minor issue was on the back side, the print is lightly visible - probably not a big deal if using this tablet for lettering practice.

Hi Maggie, it's recycled paper. It's also white with red and blue lines necessary for beginner writers. If I use a sharpie on thus particular paper, the ink seeps through on the other pages so I'm not sure how great this book will work with a fountain pen but it's an excellent notebook. My first grader uses this book and I find it to be very useful for what she needs it for which is writing. Hope thus helps. Happy holidays

It works great for my purpose. I opened it and saw that the blades are made of metal but the mechanism ( gears ?) that drives the paper forward through the blades are made of synthetic materials ( plastic I guess).

It honestly depends on the person I write music & I'm constantly scribbling out phrases and rewriting over them which is why I prefer this paper its also recycled which makes me feel better about using so much of it. Hope this helps I'm sure your friend will love whatever you get them :) happy holidays!

10% recycled paper. No indication of thickness, but they are not as thick as I would like them - but useable for my purposes.

To date, the lightest weight paper I used was standard notebook paper and none of the colors bled. Not even close. One con I discovered was that card stock, using dark heavier weighted papers absorb the ink. I ended up ordering the the jelly writers flourescent orange and pink. The ink consistancy is thicker and doesn't not disappear into the paper. But I am still loving the pens! I have used them so much I emptied 10 of the pens and most will be out soon. I will be ordering more.

The paper is pretty flat, with a really really fine texture. It's thick enough that marker ink doesn't bleed to the next page (though it will bleed visibly from the other side of the sheet). It's thick enough that you can't see the next page through it. Hope this was helpful!

It's very light coloured, like parchment paper. Much lighter coloured than a manila envelope, a little darker than the inside of an almond.

I'm not sure about a silver paper, but mine is a dull silver/brown paper. That said it is a paper and I left mine on.

The paper is a bright matte finish. The heaviness of the paper makes it perfect for two-sided printing. I use it for two-sided printing on both inkjet and laser printers. It does not bleed through the way 20-24 lb paper does.

It looks like a standard ball point pen or roller ball. These pens write great and the ink dries fast. Hope that helps. :-)

paper isn't glossy and I've been using it for 2 sided color copies without the ink running through. It's definitely an excellent paper to use.

It is lined paper. I really love it. Holding up well and I carry and use it everyday.

hi i unfolded the bottom of the back to take a look. there is one layer of a white sticky type material next to the paper. says nothing on the bag about the ply. in my mind it would seem that the white lining is such that dust would be collected very well.

It is a flat black and white paper similar to matt surface papers for darkroom printing. I did not like it as it was not "velvet" black at all.

It's a dark charcoal. I tested it in my journal and it is definitely not the same color as the previous entries that I made using a black ballpoint pen.

No the paper isn't textured but if you wanted to use a fountain pen it would bleed through. The paper is very thin and meant for sketching with graphite. I tried a fountian pen on it because I wanted to use it as a journal but ended up just using it as a sketch book. Still a huge book for the price!
