QUESTION:

What is the advantage of having matte (nonglossy) pages in this book rather than pages with a glossier surface?

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 2

The background (paper) of the page reflects more incident light than the ink, allowing us to read print from it.

Due to the contrast created by the ink's absorption of nearly all visible frequencies of incident light, we can see what is printed on the paper.
