Canson - Vidalon Tracing Vellum
Trace precise linework that survives erasures without tearing or yellowing
Heavy weight construction transforms tracing paper from delicate intermediary to durable working surface. Canson's Vidalon combines 55 lb. heft with high transparency, creating vellum that withstands aggressive erasing and surface scraping without compromising clarity. That extra smooth finish ensures clean line work whether you're drafting with technical pens, sketching with graphite, or inking with fiber tips, no catch, no feather, no bleed through.
Natural composition provides archival stability that synthetic alternatives can't match. The vellum maintains transparency without yellowing, crucial for architectural documents and illustration work intended for long-term storage or reproduction. This stability extends to commercial applications: the surface accepts microfilm, offset, and letterpress processes with consistent results.
Smaller formats (9 × 12 inches and 14 × 17 inches) come in tape-bound pads of 50 sheets, practical for iterative design work and sequential studies. Larger sheets (19½ × 25 inches and 24 × 36 inches) are sold individually, sized for architectural plans and full-scale technical drawings where you need precise dimensions without waste.
