    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...
