Recently I ordered another pack of A5 printer paper for my A5 Filofax organisers. One of my favorite things about using the A5 size is the ease of printing inserts. I just buy A5 paper, print, and hole punch.
This is the third pack of A5 paper I have used. The first pack I used was 80 gsm, which was fine, but when it came time to order the next pack they didn't have 80, so I got 90 gsm. I liked it so much I ordered 90 gsm again this time.
When choosing paper thickness to use in a Filofax, it's a tradeoff between how thick you like your paper to be (which is especially important when using fountain pens, highlighters, or other ink that tends to show through paper), vs how many pages you can fit into your binder.
90 gsm is perfect for me. It's thick enough that my highlighters don't show through to the other side of the page, but thin enough that it doesn't prevent me from putting as many pages as I need into my Filofax.
What paper thickness do you prefer? Thicker or thinner?
And as always on Fridays, feel free to ask and/ or discuss anything ring binder organiser related!
