Tarhut – That is good idea to use cardstock! the only resumes I have gotten printed on the back were on photopaper, which is difficult to write on. Is the card stock matte photopaper on picture side or no sheen cardstock?



It can be either. Commercial papers come in all kinds of varieties. They’re just like the brochures you might get from a number of sources. Some are glossy and some are matte. I use matte on both sides, but there are people who use papers that are glossy on one side and matte on the other. They tend to be people who are younger than I am and going for juvenile lead/ingenue roles, but it varies.

Writing on a glossy surface would probably be difficult to do, but I’ve never seen the back of one of these things be glossy. The matte finish is about the same as writing on a postcard, generally.
