Glossy: Glossy is a shiny finish printed on Kodak Royal Paper (up to 12x30) or Kodak Endura Paper.
Matte: Matte paper has a very smooth, non-glare surface. Matte finishes have a lower-contrast when printed and are often used to enhance the texture of a print. Matte prints are fingerprint and smudge resistant, and work very well with Black & White photos. Matte has much less glare than glossy.
Lustre: Lustre is the premier paper offering and is the most popular choice; it has a slight gloss with a subtle, often pearl-like texture. Lustre paper has deeper color-saturation and higher contrast than matte and is materially 'thicker,' or heavier, than consumer paper. Lustre offers the vibrant colors of glossy with a fingerprint-resistant matte finish.

Giclée Canvas and Watercolor PrintsGiclée Prints are made with high-quality archival inks on fine art papers using a high-resolution large format inkjet printer. The premium inks produce images with smooth tones and rich colors, making these prints ideal for extraordinary presentations. Available in 2 paper surfaces: Watercolor and Canvas.
Watercolor Giclée Prints are on a heavy, 310g paper with a subtle texture. This acid-free paper is 100% cotton fiber and is finished with a water-based protective spray.
Canvas Giclée The Giclée process enables us to print directly onto museum-quality canvas material, so prints will not separate over time. There are three different mounting options: Canvas Wrap, Canvas Stretch/Staple, and Canvas Board. Protective spray coating is applied to the surface of each print to help prevent scratches and other damage.
Canvas Wrap Prints are a stylish, low-cost alternative to traditional framing wherein the print is wrapped around a stretcher frame so that 1 3/4" of the photo's edges are visible on the sides of the frame. Delivered display-ready with hanging hardware attached.

Canvas Stretch/Staple Mounting is a unique way to display your images like a fine art canvas. The print is stretched to the edge of a 1 3/4" thick wooden frame, and stapled around the edges, leaving the full image on the front. This is suitable for framing.
Canvas Board Prints Prints are mounted onto sturdy Gator Foamboard, a very rigid foamboard and lightweight backing with a white finish.
