Haha your comments make me mourn for a paper I’ve never touched.

Yup, I am mourning.

I have been writing on my Optik+ with dark lines and dark Scribzee marks notebook at work today. A few notes on an expiring Optik 90gsm with no Scribzee and light ruling made me very sad in comparison.

 

Rhodia can be inconsistent at time, and I am glad you are happy with the Optik+. Like I said it's not bad paper! Just not what Optik was.

So, just to confirm my understanding of the Optik history, there was Optik paper with no scribzee, Optik paper with scribzee, and now Optik+ with scribzee?

Pretty much. Maybe non Scribzee Optik+ exists, I wouldn't be surprised, perhaps in some countries (France?) where Hamelin products are widely available.

I don't really mind the Scribzee marks, but they come with darker ruling, I'm guessing for better writing recognition with the app.

Is there a difference in writing experience between scribzee and non scribzee optik or is it just an aesthetic difference?

If we're talking Optik, all I have is non Scribzee, so I can't comment.
