A: The manufacturer, Hahnemühle, applies a coating for printing on one side of the Hahnemühle Photo Rag Bright White 13 x 19" Paper (310GSM, 25 Sheets) (B&H# HAPRBWSB25).

Q: 9. Is the paper grain parallel to the short side or the long side? Apparently the label is marked GS if it is short grain.

A: There is no way we can know in advance what batch we'll get from Moab, but yes if it has a GS it will mean 'short grain'. Moab cuts the paper from a roll & it depends how they slice it up. Although the paper is smooth people that want to fold the paper (i.e. for cards) would be very specific in the grain direction so the paper folds smoothly.

Q: 10. Does this board have adhesive on one side?
