## Overview

DocuGard Advanced Blue Multi-Purpose Security Paper offers 7 sophisticated security features—including microtext, heat-sensitive ink, and hidden copy warnings—designed to prevent unauthorized duplication and tampering. Sized 8.5 x 11 inches, 24 lb weight, and made from eco-friendly, biodegradable paper sourced in the USA, this 500-sheet ream is perfect for confidential contracts, certificates, and sensitive documents requiring top-tier protection.

## Description

If you are printing confidential documents such as contracts, transcripts & certificates or documents that should not be duplicated such as coupons and raffle tickets, you should choose a trusted security paper that has layered protection. As digital copier and scanner technology continues to improve, no one security feature alone will work 100% of the time. DocuGard Multi-Purpose Security Papers are the ultimate fraud fighters with up to 7 security features per sheet ensuring that your documents cannot be tampered with or accurately duplicated. DocuGard offers two levels of security: Standard – 2 security features & Advanced - 7 security features. Standard Security features include: Hidden message technology* (“UNAUTHORIZED COPY” appears when copied) and a blue colored background that shows alterations when erased. Advanced Security features include: All Standard Security features plus a printed artificial watermark; microtext printing which is only visible when magnified, but illegible when copied; a security features listing; and coin reactive ink that turns black when rubbed with a coin; and heat-sensitive ink that disappears when copied. *Note: hidden message technology (also known as an “UNAUTHORIZED COPY” pantograph) is the most common and least dependable security feature. As technology continues to improve, you may find that copies can be made without the hidden message appearing – which is why having a combination of layered features is so important. DocuGard Multi-Purpose secure paper is manufactured to run jam-free on desktop and high volume production inkjet and laser devices. DocuGard is a brand of Paris Corporation. Since 1964 we have been the experts on manufacturing quality forms and specialty paper for use in homes, offices and high-volume production facilities. Our products range from secure prescription and check blanks to prepunched and preperforated papers to colored paper/cardstocks, labels and t-shirt transfers. We source our paper from North American mills that actively work to sustain our environment. When you buy DocuGard products, you are helping to preserve the environment - for every tree that is harvested to make our paper, three are planted in its place. You can print responsibly knowing DocuGard paper is good for the environment.

Review: It works! - This anti-copy paper does work - it produces an anti copy message if photocopied ( unlike other papers I have tried). The advertised “blue colour” is not a problem for me, but I was surprised to realise that it had a white border all around. What’s not so good - it’s only “anti-copy” on one side, and it’s US sized paper. I now struggle to obtain double sided A4 paper.
Review: Sorry not what I thouht - When I ordered this I thought I am getting a type of papers that when printed then no body can make a photocopy of it as I saw papers like this but what I got is papeirs which show around the print just light words telling copy
