Review on 🗒️ Rhodia Staplebound Dot Grid Notepad - Orange Cover, 80 Sheets, 8 1/4 x 11 3/4: Product Review by Kim Sanchez

Fantastic paper. Very smooth, elastic, non-absorbent. Somehow all these things are still very light, so they feel thin and elegant. I used a crow quill (a dip pen nib specially made for fine lines and therefore has a sharp needle point and catches everything, for the untrained) with very fine fountain pen ink and Rhodia is the only paper. I could learn from my possibilities what keeps him from bleeding and leaning on the edge of incomprehensibility. The pen didn't understand what I was writing and the lines came out perfectly clean. Even the heavy, high-quality art paper I tried couldn't handle this combination of ink and pen, resulting in feathering and feathering. For comparison, there is a piece of normal printer paper. Many of the letters on the printer paper are distorted and smeared because the pen got stuck 5 times in one sentence. The ink bled and smeared at a ridiculous rate, making the writing look messy and ugly. Again, Rhodia had none of those issues and remains my go-to paper for personal writing, practice, and all those picky pens. For projects, I'd recommend heavier paper just because it's...well...heavier. When I'm making an important document I need some thicker paper, but this paper is not for that and not what I want. . The lightness of this paper makes it ideal for things like writing and journaling. I have yet to find paper that is as effective for calligraphy.
