  • MANILLA - a light brown paper made of wood pulp, often used for envelopes.
  • MATT PAPER - a paper with a dull even finish.
  • MICROPERF - a very finely perforated cut.
  • MIS-REGISTER - the appearance of a printed image just outside of its correct position. Sometimes just one colour out of the four colour process will be mis-registered on the press, resulting in a slightly blurred image.
  • MULTIPART - business forms that contain more than one leaf of paper per form to provide duplicates.
