Let me talk about the characteristics of each paper
Coated paper: mainly used for printing covers and illustrations of high-end books and periodicals, color pictures, various exquisite commercial advertisements, samples, commodity packaging, trademarks, etc.

Coated paper is used for printing high-grade printed materials. The pH value of coated paper is about 7, which has no adverse effect on the lithographic printing wetting fluid and no adverse effect on the ink drying process. The ink adheres quickly and dries quickly on the coated paper. After drying, it can also bring out the gloss. The dot reproducibility is good, the layer is thin and the image is clear, and the dots are smooth. The dimensional stability of coated paper is also better than that of offset paper. Printing on coated paper can meet the requirements of accurate overprinting. The tensile strength and surface strength of coated paper are also high enough to resist the greater tensile force generated by the more viscous ink film used. Due to the above points, coated paper is commonly used to print high-quality prints.

Kraft paper: With the strengthening of environmental awareness, the use of natural color pulp products as environmentally friendly paper has been increasing year by year, and the market prospects are promising. Exquisite kraft paper is suitable for packaging of various high-end commodities, such as gift boxes for wine boxes, sports apparel, etc .; file bags, such as cultural and educational hygiene, and file preservation of enterprises and institutions; standard envelopes, such as common postal seals; and processing and shopping Bags, such as shopping bags that are common in shopping malls and brand stores, or lined paper for boxes and boards. Special paper: mainly refers to special paper with various textures

Many papers used for flexible packaging often use embossing methods before or after printing to improve the visual effects of packaging and decoration and increase the value of the goods. Therefore, embossing has become an important method of paper processing.

Again, there is no fixed industry to use some fixed paper to print. Only designers have unlimited creativity on paper.
