I have heard about the difficulties with Reflex Blue before, but I didn't know it was due to it's chemical makeup. Have you had much experience with toner-based digital systems and rub-off? In theory it would seem more susceptible to rub off, since there is little absorption into the sheet. However, I've found that theory doesn't always equal fact in this case. Great article, Pam.

Once again, Mohawk Paper is on the forefront with another way to communicate with the design/print community. As a Printing Sales Rep that deals with hundreds of designers throughout the country, my hat is off to you, for publishing the Reflex blue story. I have had this as part of my personal sales presentation for years, and designers receive conflicting stories from some printers. The coating is absorbed into the paper and is not seen, but the layer of coating is there for protection. Then as the sheet goes through all the various functions within the bindery, it has the benefit of the coating to help with marking and rubbing.mrosenthal@finlay.com (www.finlay.com) Thank you Pam McGuire, thank you Mohawk Paper.
