Question
Can I write on matte printed materials?
Answer
Yes. Matte surfaces accept pen and pencil far better than glossy finishes, which tend to resist and smear ink. That makes matte the smart choice for any piece someone needs to write on.
- Postcards with a writable message area.
- Name badges that get filled in by hand.
- Event programs where guests jot notes.
Ballpoint and felt-tip pens work best on a matte surface, drying cleanly without beading up the way they can on gloss.
