Re: FW: Acid Free Paper Claim
Can't verify a specific brand, but we test the regular printer paper we
use with a pH pen (the line turns purple if the paper is acid-free).
So far, all paper I've tested from major manufacturers has been acid-free.
The pen's manufacturer states that this system is "not exact." This kind
of paper is not a substitute for the varieties of true archival papers
(buffered, lignin-free, etc.) but it's useful in some circumstances.
