The papers listed below are taken from the booklet North American Permanent Papers, 1995 edition. They are only a selection, because so many papers now meet the requirements of ANSI Z39.48-1992, Permanence of Paper for Publications and Documents in Libraries and Archives.
"Private brands" are not listed. These are papers sold under the name given them by the packager or retailer, not the manufacturer. They are omitted because it is almost impossible get reliable test data on them.
Some of these papers are watermarked, but since this was not in the survey questionnaire, the booklet does not identify them. A list of watermarked (but not necessarily permanent) papers is in the Competitive Grade Finder. They can be cross-checked with this list to find permanent papers that are watermarked.
At any rate, here are the papers, under the categories to which the mill assigned them. The categories overlap, because some types are based on composition, others on use or primary market. Many different types of paper can be used for photocopying, e.g. offset, bond, rag paper, xerographic, laser print and reprographic; but, especially for high-speed work, some types and some individual papers give better results. Laser printers do a better job with papers made for the purpose.
