The weight or thickness of paper stock is determined by the weight in pounds. of a ream (500 sheets) of the paper of a specified size. Points are measurement of the thickness of the paper. 1 point equals 1/1000 of an inch. The thickness of 10 pt. stock would equal 10/1000 or 0.010 in. many printers have their standard point stock as 12 point. Our standard stock is 14 point with a FREE option of upgrading to 16 point on most products. To get more explanation on your choices of paper weights, go toSTOCKS.
