Michael,

So why wouldn't the two-sided matte and glossy stuff be:

stationery-glossy
stationery-matte

Thanks,
Tom

Actually, you *can* get double-sided photo-weight media, tho not at
Staples.  I have a box of matte finish photo paper in our supply
cabinet, from Great White I think.  I think they also offer a
double-sided glossy media, as do some other vendors (useful for
proofing flyers, etc.)

I'd just leave the single/double-sided coating issue undefined in
the spec.  Don't needlessly restrict the definition when we are just
trying to come up with generalized media type names...
