Great paper, horrible packing by Amazon
If all you’ve ever known is American copier paper, this will be a breath of fresh air. … As long as you don’t mind paying for it. Ever so slightly thinner than normal copier paper (0.09 mm vs 0.1 mm) but much smoother. Has a wonderful feel to it. I bought it because I love Japanese notebooks, and wanted to have the same handling experience when I printed stuff on my laser printer. This is pretty close. It’s not quite Maruman or the other premium notebook papers, but it’s very smooth and feels decidedly Japanese. However, compared to normal American copier paper, even so-called premium laser paper (which means heavier and brighter), it’s just sublime. It will arrive ripped open inside the Amazon package, as others have noted. I don’t know why Amazon can’t fix this. Only a couple of my sheets were wrinkled though. Update: the workaround for shoddy packaging is to order *two* reams. Too big and heavy for a paper bag, so they’ll come in a box. These arrived in perfect shape (see pic), in contrast to the single ream I ordered.

Perfect paper for fountain pens!
This paper is perfect for fountain pens. I tried like 20 inks from very dry ones to very wet ones. All perform perfectly on this paper. No bleeding, no feathering, no through, just nothing. Everything is perfect. Actually I already bought twice in 4 months. Perfect performance with a great price. I use however I want to without worrying about my wallet. THE PAPER every fountain pen user should have.

Love this fountain pen friendly paper
It is good quality thin enough paper that is also fountain pen friendly. I used this paper for my custom planner inserts. Really love this type of paper. Additionally, for the amount of paper, the price is unbeatable. It feels close to Fillfax inserts which I love.

Perfect for Planners and Fountain Pens
I bought this since I was tired of cutting down letter sized paper to fit into my A5 six ring-bound planner. This paper does not have the holes punched in, so as long as you have the special six ring hole puncher, you should be good! I originally was concerned with how thin the paper is, and was wondering how well it would hold up to the medium sized nib fountain pens I regularly use in my journaling/planning. This holds up very well! It's definitely got some ghosting onto the other side, as this is very thin paper, but it has no feathering and holds the fountain pen ink very well. When I print on it using my inkjet printer (Canon Pixma), the printed parts have ghosting on the other side. I've tested it using my Sailor gold nibs, Pilot, Kaweco, Platinum, TWSBI, and Ferris Wheel Press fountain pens with my Diamine, Robert Oster, Sailor, Iroshizuku inks. IMO ghosting adds character to my note taking/journaling/planning, but this could be a deal-breaker for many! I do have to note that the paper is an off-white color. I was previously using a 32 lb weight printer paper for fountain pens that was this bright white color so I noticed the stark color difference of this pack. This doesn't bother me, but it may be an important point for others when considering their choices. Overall I'm super happy with this purchase. I organize a lot of my life into my planner so this paper will be well loved and used a LOT :)

The best paper I have ever worked with!
The quality of this paper has surpassed all of my expectations, the price is absolutely worth it. If you're into loose leaf bullet journaling, this is what you're going to want to use. No bleed through with felt pens, it's perfect for pages you want to last throughout the year. I've only taken a star away because the ream came to me opened, and I'm pretty sure there's about 1/8" stack of paper missing from it.

Printed TN Inserts
I LOVE Stalogy paper, but I wanted to make my own smaller inserts for my TN. I also wanted to print a 4 mm grid on it. First of all, yes, my paper package was open. However, it shipped in a box and wasn't damaged at all. I think the thin, washi style tape used to close the ream just isn't super strong. Upon removing a sheet of paper, I was impressed with how thin it was. It really felt like my Stalogy paper! Maybe a hair thicker, but very comparable. I put the paper in my printer and held my breath. It printed like a dream! Double sided, even! I quickly put it together into an insert. The color is a nice white, which I prefer so I don't have to buy fancy cream colored correction tape. It is SO SMOOTH to write on! I mainly use gel pens and while there is some ghosting, bleed through is minimal. MOST of my fountain pens did not bleed through, but a few jucier inks did show a few dots of bleeding through the paper. I am very happy with this paper. Yes, it is more expensive, but the number of inserts I will be able to make will be a far greater savings in the long run and they will be exactly what I want.

Nice idea, not good quality..
I like the idea that this already comes in A5 size but the paper is quite thin. It functions well if you have pages or so that would be best machine printed versus writing. Easy to use with the whole punch and fits in my planner with ease. I just wish the paper had more thickness to it, feels a bit cheap and the print quality is not that great surprisingly for this brand who I have purchased from before.

GREAT paper for fountain pens.
I use this paper to make custom inserts and note pads for my Midori Traveler's Notebook. I make calendars, lined paper, dot grid, and graph. It has a coating on it that prevents bleed-through and ghosting of fountain pens. It has a great feel as well. It feeds through my laser printer with no problem, although there is an occasional creased page when printing both sides, I would say this is less than 5% of the time. At 64 gsm this paper is thinner than "typical" copy paper, which means in space-conscious applications like portable notebooks it works well where you can get more pages into the same thickness. The thinness doesn't feel like "cheapness" at all. I would call the color of this paper "cream". It is a pleasing color, but definitely not white. Overall, I couldn't be happier with this paper.

便利です。安いです。自治会の役員をしてから、自分で発行する印刷物が増え、紙の使用量が格段に増えましたが、このコストなら問題ありません。紙の質も十分です。
