What does basis weight (g/m²) mean? Does a higher value mean better paper?

Basis weight represents the thickness of the paper. The higher the value, the thicker and stiffer the paper. The best choice depends on your actual needs and practical use.

What is the difference between fine, medium, and rough textures? How do I choose the right sketch paper texture?

The texture affects drawing results and tool compatibility:

Fine texture: Suitable for pencils and technical pens, producing smooth lines.
Medium texture: A versatile choice, compatible with charcoal and colored pencils, balancing detail and texture.
Rough texture: Enhances the grainy effect of charcoal and pastels, ideal for expressive styles.

Why does charcoal sometimes smudge or fall off the paper?

The softer the charcoal and the larger the carbon particles, the harder it is to fix them on the paper surface. Smudging is related to the tool rather than paper quality , using charcoal with the right hardness helps reduce powder loss.
