Abstract
A coated synthetic paper adapted for offset printing is produced from a base paper sheet comprising fibrous material, at least 5% by weight of which is formed of polyolefinic pulp fibrils which are formed from a polyolefinic polymer and a hydrophilic polymer, said polyolefinic pulp fibrils having a specific surface area of at least 0.7 square meter/g. A microporous and discontinuous coating layer is formed on at least one of the surfaces of the base paper sheet using a coating composition having an adhesive component and a pigment component, at least 5% by weight of said pigment component being an organic polymer pigment in the form of finely divided particles.
