Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Daler Rowney Calligraphy Pad A3 (90gsm) best used for?
It's designed for calligraphy practice, lettering, and ink drawing. The smooth 90gsm surface provides precise ink control and clean line work, making it ideal for pen & ink projects and large-format lettering on A3-sized sheets.
What are the key specifications of this pad?
Size: A3 (297 x 420 mm). Paper weight: 90gsm with a smooth surface. Bleed-resistant surface to minimize feathering and smudging. Acid-free paper for long-term preservation. Spiral binding allows flat use and easy sheet removal.
How does the 90gsm smooth paper affect ink flow with dip pens and fountain pens?
The smooth surface offers excellent ink glide and control, helping to produce crisp, clean lines. The 90gsm weight helps prevent excessive feathering for most ink types commonly used in calligraphy and line drawing.
Is the paper acid-free and suitable for archival-quality work?
Yes. The pad uses acid-free paper, which helps reduce yellowing over time and is better for preserving artwork and lettering in the long term.
How should I use and care for this pad during a project?
Place the pad on a flat, stable surface. Use gentle, even pressure with your chosen nib or marker to avoid skipping. When finished with a sheet, tear it out cleanly or continue using the remaining pages with the spiral binding for easy flipping.
Which nibs and inks work best with this pad?
Dip nibs and fountain pens that write smoothly on a smooth 90gsm surface perform well. Water-based and pigment inks typically work well, but test a small area first to check bleed and drying time on your chosen ink.
Is it safe to use markers on this pad, or will the ink bleed through?
The pad has a bleed-resistant surface designed to minimize feathering and bleed. Ballpoint, gel, and many markers can work well, but marker types with heavy saturation or alcohol-based inks may still show some bleed-through depending on the nib and ink used.
What are the ideal use cases or projects for this pad?
Ideal for practice sketches, calligraphy drills, large-lettered headings, and ink-based design work where a smooth, controlled line is desired on a spacious A3 sheet.
How does this pad compare to other calligraphy pads on Fepy.com?

What are some practical applications for the Daler Rowney Calligraphy Pad in design work?
Use it for hand-lettered titles, logo explorations, decorative lettering for posters, and concept sketches where crisp ink lines and a clean, professional surface are important.
How should I store the pad to maintain its quality?
Keep the pad flat in a dry environment, away from direct sunlight. If you’re not using it, store sheets in the pad to prevent warping and protect the surface from dust and moisture.
