Textured paper, often called leather-textured paper, is characterized by its distinct texture and uneven surface, giving it a unique tactile feel.

 

During the printing process, the texture of leather-textured paper can sometimes cause the text to appear somewhat blurry. To achieve a clear print, increased printing pressure is needed to ensure the ink fully fills the texture.

 

Due to its unique texture, leather-textured paper is suitable for a variety of applications. Thicker leather-textured paper is often used for sample covers and tender documents, while thinner leather-textured paper is suitable for gift wrapping and book covers.

 

Legacy-textured paper is relatively affordable, making it an economical choice for printing plants of all sizes.
