Abstract:
A graphic medium (100) and a method (200) of making same employs a paper core (110) having a normalized opacity within a range of about 0.15 to about 0.4 percent/grams per square meter. The graphic medium includes a first material layer (120) on a first side of the paper core and a second material layer (130, 132, 134) on one or both of the first side between the paper core and the first material layer and a second, opposite side of the paper core. The graphic medium has a translucent opacity between about 40% and about 90%. The method includes mechanically refining (220) a mixture of wood fibers until a paper substrate is formed having the normalized opacity. The paper substrate is calendered (230) using a paper making machine and the first and second material layers are applied (240, 250) to form the graphic medium.
