Book Paper

RFQ DESCRIPTION:

Looking for samples of book paper used in manga publications Hello Everyone! I am looking for a paper supplier who is familiar and ideally has a selection of a particular pulpy paper that is usually found in manga publications (Japanese comic books) as interior paper. It has a texture akin to typical book paper used in novel publications, but has more of a creamy gray color and slightly thicker. Please see images for examples As for an order, I am looking to get samples of this paper to first determine if it's what has been traditionally used in the publication industry. Samples should be sheets no larger than 12" x 18", with a total of 50 sheets. If a supplier has more than one type of stock available, for example five different variations, then it would be 10 sheets per for a total of 50. If the samples are a good match, I intend to share the suppliers information with commercial printers and publishers within my industry. The end goal is to get the desired paper available in reams for digital inkjet printing. Reams will have 12" x 18" sheet at 500 sheets per ream. Rolls for offset will be determined on a case by case bases depending on commercial printers needs. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out. This my first time reaching out directly to suppliers with an RFQ, so I appreciate any assistance you can provide during this process. I am a passionate person who loves manga and comics looking to improve paper availability for the growing publication industry with potentially thousands of self-publishers ready to invest in this paper. Thank you for your time and looking forward to your responses.
