Is 100 lb paper thicker than the 100lb one?

Question

Thanks for your help...

I'm sorry - I must have not had enough sleep tonight ;-) I ment to ask if 100 lb paper is thicker than the 70 lb one if both are glossy....

Answer 1

Is one-hundred pound paper thicker than the one-hundred pound one?

That doesn't make sense...Can you please clarify what it is that you're trying to find out? Are you really asking if there's a difference in the types because of a space being there or not? If that's the case, the answer is no. 100 lb = 100lb. Same.

Answer 2

100 Lb Paper Thickness

Answer 3

100 lb paper is the same as 100lb paper. The rating is based on how much a certain amount of the paper weighs. Try checking the sheets per case, the brand with the lowest sheet count is bound to be the thickest sheet of the two.

Answer 4

Not really, if you get 100lbs glossy vs 100lbs cover you'll see a difference. Glossy will be, well glossy, and the cover will be more firmer

Paper weight is more for the amount of ink it can absorb and how much cleaner the colours can be vs standard 32lbs. But the paper brightness differs. Most are rated 96 white.

Answer 5

Your question makes no sense. "100 lb." refers to the weight of a ream (500 sheets) of 17x22" paper. Thickness is not the only factor that contributes to paper weight. Some fibers are more dense than others and are therefore heavier. Some papers have clay coatings which don't add a lot of thickness but do add a lot of weight.

Answer 6

100 to 100???
lbs = pound

No, the 100lb paper is THINNER than the 100lb paper.
