Do these pens smear?

Carol, just a quick note. Even though they do smear if you're not careful on smooth paper, I LOVE my pens. I'm on my second set. Just give them a minute or so to dry and cover your wrk and you'll love them and the way they look. Especially on dark paper, the silver and golds are great.

They do smear, especially on smooth paper. I let mine dry for a few mins. Use a paper towel or napkin to cover one area while working on another.

If you're left handed, they may smear a little bit. I'm right handed and have not had a problem with smearing unless I purposely do a smear test when the ink is freshly laid and wet before coloring with them. I hope this helps.

I haven't tried them on transparencies, but I'm pretty certain that they would, in fact, smear. They're great pens, but I don't think they're meant for anything other than paper.

J. I. Rosemberg! Thanks for your interest in our products. The tips for these pens are very soft and "buoyant". They are hollow, so they are only meant to be swept across the screen, as you would your fingertip or a paintbrush. Hope that helps! If there's anything else, just let me know. I can be contacted directly via this link:

I believe so...although mine are slightly loose but they stay in. Sorry that yours were too big. I am guessing it may have to do with how the pen...or the eraser was made.

Absolutely not! These are very high-quality pens that write with a very fine point with no skipping. The do not leak ink if you leave the cap off.

I have only used ball point pens and the ink was not smeared. The only issue that on some colored tabs ball point pens are not as dark as gel pens so can be hard to read the writing at a glance

I don't think your ink will smear. I used a Sharpie. And I don't really think stains would be a problem. The labels are made of a plastic of some sort. The problem might be that the labels don't shrink neatly, so you may have wrinkles on the surface. You might be able to find a way to get the results you want, though.

I have used them in my Erin Condren planner and it really depends on how hard you write with your pen. More often than not, they don't bleed.

I believe it will. I wrote on mine with a marker and it didn't smear. That's all I call tell you...hope that helps.Greg

I really don't know if they would smear Or bleed through or not. But I do know that somehow these pens have changed and they are not the same quality that I got previously. I don't recommend them at this point.

Hi Matt...the pens are for my Grandaughters...they write on computer paper with them. Any other paper I would not know about

Yes, it does. I'm left handed and run my hand over the words right after I write them. I find that I often smear ballpoint ink because it blobs and those parts smear easily. The fountain pen ink seems to dry faster. The only exception is shiny paper. The ink does not dry quickly on shiny paper.

No. You need a regular felt tip for that purpose. The pens are excellent for writing...and no bleed through.

No they don't. I've been using them for the past 4 months & they are still working great & writing smoothly.

I have an inkjet and they haven't smudged yet. I'm sure they would if they got wet...but just standard use I've had no issues with smudging.
