Posted:27 Apr 2011 (18:46 UTC)Hi, J.G.!
We offer two print processes and different paper options for the different
print options.
For the quick bound print process we offer 2 paper options
1) photo satin - paper doesn't have any shine to it
2) photo silk - this paper has a little bit of a shine. It is not the slick
gloss of magazines or prints, and you have to turn the paper in the light to
see the shine. The real benefit of this paper is that it has a protective
coating so if you spill something on the book you have a second or two to
get a towel to wipe the paper before the liquid sinks into the paper.
For the premium print process we offer one paper option.
This paper is very similar to the photo silk but just slightly heavier. The
real difference here is the premium production process which is ink based.
Here is a page that highlights the premium products

The 14x11 product and the 11x8.5 calendar also offer a heavier paper.

Posted:27 Apr 2011 (11:46 UTC)What is the difference between the silk finish and the satin finish? Also, is one thicker than the other and less likely to be ripped. I'm doing photo books for my children that I want to look nice but be strong enough for little hands to flip through.
