The column called Publish or Perish (no, it's not about academic tenure)
by Michael Wesley in the August issue of MacUser mentions the book
"Whale Song" that, according to Wesley, "is gorgeous, thanks to
some interesting techniques like the use of a **special paper** that 
optimizes the LaserWriter output"

My question is, does anyone know what kind of paper does in fact
optimize the LaserWriter output? Is there a special weight, stock,
material...? 

Thanks.

The best stuff I've found so far is Xerox 4024 Dual-Purpose 28 lb.
It's a lot heavier that normal copier paper, with a nice surface finish.

Hammermill Laser Plus isn't bad, but it seems to be over-rated.  It's
slightly better than cheap copier paper, as is Inmac Laser Paper.
