## Questions & Answers

**Q: does every page has the brand name stamp?**
A: Arches watercolor paper that comes from a pad or a block DOES NOT have the brand imprint/watermark on the paper.  Only the large, single sheets of Arches, measuring approx 30" x 22", will have the brand stamped into one of the corners. The artist can then tear or cut these sheets into the custom sizes needed.  Hope this helps!

**Q: does every page has the brand name stamp?**
A: Only when you but single sheets. The imprinted logo doesn't come on pads, as far as I know, and I've purchased the rough blocks, rough pads, cold press and smooth press pads. I bought 4 - 20 inch sheets last week and they DO have the imprint on the bottom of each one. Hope that helps :)

**Q: Can you print on this paper with a standard at-home printer? I am hoping to use this for wedding invitations.**
A: Not exactly sure and I don't want to try it out as I think it is too heavy, but I use 67 pound paper for cards.  I think the 140 pound paper might be too heavy.  I use Wausau Exact Bristol 67 lb medium card stock semi-smooth surface.  It comes in a package of 8 1/2 by 11 with 250 sheets.  It comes in a variety of colors and is available from Amazon.com.  I fold it twice to get a card out of it and there are readily available envelopes as well.  My envelopes are Office Depot, Baronial invitation envelopes 24 lb weight 4 3/8 by 5 3/4 inches.

**Q: Are there any animal products used in this paper?**
A: Yes, it is gelatin-sized so it is NOT a vegan paper.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Best Paper on the Market
*by A***N on April 12, 2026*

The best. Period. The Arches compress paper texture is perfect, so crisp, and it’s a joy to both paint and draw on. Some prefer the smoother texture of the hot press version, but I enjoy the extra tooth that the cold press provides. I use it with both pencil and pen/ink (particularly with a nice dip pen, although the texture is ideal for dry brush effects), colored pencils, gouache, and watercolor. It’s even great with acrylics. It tolerates water very well, although I prefer to tape it down and stretch it for that extra stability. Additionally, I’m just starting to use it to create high-quality giclee prints on my new Canon Pro-300 printer. There’s no need to look any further, this is the gold standard paper for professionals.
