Product Information
Full details
The Manuscript A5 Notebook is designed for students, office professionals, and individuals who require a reliable, economical solution for everyday note-taking and quick notation. These notebooks provide the benefit of consistent, neat writing space thanks to their feint-ruled pages and compact A5 dimensions, making them perfect for on-the-go use; however, users should note that the 60gsm paper weight is best suited for ballpoint pens and pencils, as heavier fountain pen inks may show through the thin sheets.

FAQs
What is the weight of the paper used in these notebooks?
The notebooks use 60gsm paper.
Are these notebooks suitable for fountain pens?
Generally, no. The 60gsm paper is likely to cause bleed-through or feathering with most fountain pen inks.
How many pages are in each notebook?
Each notebook contains 160 pages.
What are the physical dimensions of the notebook?
The notebooks are A5 size, measuring 148 x 210mm.
Does this pack include different colors?
No, all 10 notebooks in this pack feature the standard red linen-effect cover.
Are the pages perforated for easy removal?
No, these are casebound notebooks designed for permanent record keeping, so pages are not perforated.
Troubleshooting
Ink bleeding through the back of the page
Switch to a ballpoint pen or a pencil, as the 60gsm paper is too thin for high-flow fountain pen or rollerball inks.
Notebook will not lay flat
Apply gentle pressure along the spine or use a binder clip to hold the page down while writing until the spine breaks in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No formal setup is required for these notebooks; they are ready for immediate use upon unboxing.
- Compatibility: Best paired with ballpoint pens, standard graphite pencils, and fine-tip felt markers. Avoid using heavy fountain pen inks or thick calligraphy markers to prevent bleed-through.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent the paper from absorbing ambient humidity, which can lead to page rippling.
- Care: Keep away from liquids, as the paper is not coated and will absorb spills instantly. The red linen-effect cover can be wiped down gently with a dry, lint-free cloth if it accumulates dust.
