Beware, the 110lb weight rating of this card stock is based on INDEX weight, not COVER STOCK weight, which is what cardstock weights are typically given in.

Meaning that if you went to a professional printer or stationery and asked for 110 lb cardstock, the paper they would give you is about 50% thicker than this stuff that Staples is calling "110 lb." I guess it's technically not false advertising since they don't actually specify which weight basis they are using, but it certainly plays on the average buyer's lack of knowledge about paper/cardstock weight ratings.

How did I figure this out? Because 110 lb cover stock has a density of 298 grams/meter squared, but Staples glorified copier paper has a density of 199 g/m^2. Big difference when you're trying to use it for an application that requires a stiff, heavy paper.

My recommendation is to visit a real print or stationery shop if you need something substantial.

    This product is great to print presentations on but sometimes the thickness caused printer to jam. Very high quality paper for special flyers, etc. but not for everyday use. I would recommend this product if you want great looking flyers and small posters.
