About six months ago I bought a number of pads of paper. Most of the paper was Rhodia, mainly the #16 quad ruled. I also decided to buy some "WhiteLine" paper, in A4 or letter size (not sure and too lazy to get up and check right now). Meanwhile, I was finishing up the vintage accounting ledger that was using as my most recent journal book and, I decided to use the "Whitline" as my next journal book. As I usually prefer fine to extra fine nibs and different colored inks (I change color every day), I thought it would be a good choice! My experience with anything approaching a medium nib or a wet ink has been less than impressive - occasionally a bit of feathering, definitely some ghosting and sometimes, if I use a medium or stub (I don't think I own a broad nib) I can pretty much count on bleed through. If I wasn't about 15 pages into this book, I would probably copy my initial entries over and use another, more FPN friendly book. So I adjusted by using f/ef nibs and writing lightly... I do like the "concept" of this paper and wish it was more accommodating to my nib/ink choices. Anyone else out there using this kind of paper? Definitely appreciate any comments and/or shared experiences.
