Paper Type Testing

I went to the Print Bureau at UCA and I had a look at the available paper types. My favourite was Bokingford watercolour inkjet 190gsm, as it has quite a bit of texture and is pretty heavy, which I think gives the book more gravitas. I did 2 test prints, one on the Bokingford, and one on 100gsm laser paper, which I didn't like as much.

My original sizing, which successfully printed on the Bokingford paper, was 10.5x8in, but the laser paper test print made each page A5. I decided I like this a lot more than the 10.5x8, so I've changed the paper size on InDesign to 8.5x5in.
