Abstract
The present invention is directed to a multilayer article comprising a substantially water-resistant, coated, microporous substrate connected to a substantially nonporous material. Further, the present invention is directed to a process for producing the multilayer article. The multilayer article and method of the present invention is especially useful for an ink jet recordable substrate and printing on said substrate.
