Question
What is text stock?
Answer
Text stock is a lighter-weight paper used for pages that need to fold, turn, and stack easily. It is the workhorse for the inside of printed pieces rather than the rigid outer shell.
- Light and flexible: it folds cleanly and is not meant to stand on its own like cover stock.
- Common uses: booklet and catalog inner pages, flyers, letterhead, and newsletters.
- Pairs with cover: booklets often run a heavier cover stock outside with text stock pages inside.
| Stock | Weight | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Text | Lighter | Inside pages, flyers |
| Cover | Heavier | Covers, cards |
