Question

What paper type does 4OVER4 recommend for folded place cards?

Answer

For folded place cards, the stock needs to stand up on its own and fold without cracking. 4OVER4 recommends a cover-weight paper, with scoring to keep the fold clean.

  • 14pt cover in gloss or uncoated is a solid, self-standing choice.
  • Heavier specialty stock gives a more premium, substantial feel for formal events.
  • Scoring before folding prevents cracking on heavier paper.

The exact stocks available depend on the product, so confirm the latest options on the product page or with 4OVER4 support, who can also help set up a custom folded card.
