That's not strictly correct. You need a uniform background which can be white, light blue, orange etc. They don't exclude (but they don't like) black, red or any dark colours.

As for the paper, we used to use light-weight gloss paper, but not glaze it. Now it's all done digitally you need to find some way of mimicking that.

If you're using a laser printer the solution is simple. Use Laser Glossy paper, which isn't glossy at all, but would be perfect for this. If you're using an inkjet you could probably use the same paper and get pretty good results.

Send me a PM with your address and I'll send you a few sheets.
