This review is from: Avery Half-Fold Feather-Edge Greeting Cards for Inkjet Printers, 5.5 x 8.5 Inches, Ivory, Pack of 20 (3251) (Office Product)

We used this paper to send out about 200 invitations to our 50th wedding anniversary using MS Publisher to work up the format. Looked quite nice.

Other reviews have pretty much described the paper; the "texture" is very thin lines about 1/32" apart embossed in the paper and runs the same direction as the fold in the card. The envelop is also textured and the lines run from left to right.

The feathering is on one end of the paper and on the envelop flap. Might note that we used eleven boxes and the paper size varied in length from box to box by as much as 1/4" but within given box, the paper was pretty uniform.

Print quality with our HP Officejet Pro L7680 printer was fine. However, when you read on the Avery package that this product was intended for single copy printing, believe it. Our printer would NOT reliably feed even a few copies automatically. The same is true with the envelops; they also had to be printed one at a time. AND - we had to tuck the flap inside the envelop or a good percentage of the envelops would not feed through straight.

One final printing note: the printer had difficulty properly registering the paper when the feathered edge was fed in first. Perhaps 10 - 15% would print slightly crooked on the page, or too close to the feathered end or both. Never found a solution to that other than to rotate the page 180 degrees in Publisher and feed the paper the other direction.

All that said, overall we were pleased with the resulting invitations and will be using more of this card stock.

I am very pleased with my purchase.
I couldn't find this Feather Edge Greeting Card paper in the stores
or on line and I just love the look of the greeting cards made with
this card stock. This was also the first time that I got such a deal
on the price of this card stock and so I took advantage of the price
and purchased six boxes and I will do it again if they get more stock
in at the same price and the delivery was also very fast.

I live in a retirement community. I made one card and everyone liked it so much that I now have a job of making all the cards for our morning coffee group birthdays,and other important occasions.I contribute it to the beautiful paper.
