WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US
Experience with Red River Paper
Red River Catalog is one of those websites that you later wonder what you did before you found them. They have great photo paper, yeah, yeah, most of the websites who specialize in photopaper do, but that doesn't do you much good if you're just a hobbyist and never worked in anything remotely connected with the industry. Red River Catalog has all kinds of fantastic help pages that explain not only the differences in the types of paper, but more importantly, why you care, when to use one type versus the other, and so on and so forth. I LOVE the sample kits! Who knew some of those papers were even manufactured? But better than that, they ALSO have pages that talk about different printers, the differences between dye inks and pigment inks, when it matters, and so forth. Another great find: they have printer profiles. At one point, I was desperate to figure out how to get my artwork to "bleed" off the front page of the 7 x 10 greeting cards. It took me several days to put it together, but all my clues came from the RedRiverCatalog web site. I wouldn't consider buying my photo paper from anyone else.
