CIE stands for the Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage, which translates to the International Commission on Illumination in English. In the context of paper, CIE refers to the CIE whiteness and brightness standards.
The CIE whiteness measurement determines the colour appearance of the paper based on how it reflects light across the visible spectrum. A higher CIE whiteness value indicates a paper that appears brighter and more visually appealing therefore better for printing.
Opacity refers to the property of paper that obstructs the passage of light and reduces show-through of printing. Papers with higher opacity are preferred for such applications as they ensure a clean, professional look without ink or text bleeding through.
