Are you put off by a calibration certificate on plain copy paper? Should it be on thick or what kind of paper
Or doesn't it make a difference to you?
Opinions please.

I have been using the same digital system for over a decade, it has the facility to print a certificate however I have never used it as the pertinent information is retained, backed up and easily accessible, so it would just be a waste of paper.

I totally agree with Al Rosen, as long as the required information is correct and easily accessible the weight of paper doesn’t matter as long as the paper won’t rapidly degrade and the print doesn’t fade to the level of illegibility.

I'm more interested in the calibration data supplied than the paper it's printed on...

I'm on the "doesn't matter" boat as long as the content is correct.
I prefer to be sent a pdf via email anyway.
Then I can print it on card stock if I really want to.

It's a report (to me); as such, I just want it on regular paper.

Having useful, organized information on it is more important than the style of paper.

I used to work at a place that had fancy certificates- individually numbered, and the rule was that all the numbers HAD to be sequential. That's well and fine if you have a cert that's 1-2 pages, but when you have a 10 page pin gage cert, it got a little more challenging. If there was a misprint halfway through, you had to start over. It was a pain in the butt and a massive waste of expensive paper.

My current company is now about 70% paperless- hoping to be completely paperless within the next few years.
