What is the difference between coated and uncoated paper?

Answered By Patrice Alce


Once a paper is encrusted with clay or other coating material then it is described as coated paper. A coated paper is distinguished as dull, glossy or matte. When coated paper is used then it will create sharper and brighter images.

On the other hand, uncoated paper does not have any coating material. With uncoated paper you will be able to use it for several finishes, weights and colors. Compared to coated paper, uncoated is more permeable.
