Does resume paper have a matte, glossy, or textured finish?
The most common types of resume paper are linen, cotton, and parchment, which all have a textured finish. You can find these papers from Quill in ivory, gold, and white. This type of paper is thicker without being too heavy, and gives printed resumes and other professional documents that special touch.
Who Should Use Resume Papers?
Paper for resumes is used for a variety of cases, most notably by individuals who are searching for a new job and want to showcase their resume on a more professional paper. While this is one of the uses, there are plenty of other instances where using this type can be helpful. Since CV paper is a high-quality paper, it can be used by office professionals who are looking for sturdier material to print their work on. Additionally, it can be used in a variety of printers easily to allow for professional-grade products for presenting important work documents to staff or clients.
Is the paper compatible with inkjet or laser printers?
While you can technically print on resume paper using an inkjet printer, a laser printer will provide better results. Using an inkjet printer can lead to ink smearing because of the thicker paper. At Quill we offer a variety of laser printers as well as toner refills.
Is the paper made of sustainable/recyclable materials?
Many of the types of resume paper you can buy at Quill are made with recycled material and/or are Eco-Verified. We have sustainable parchment, linen, and cotton options.
