For fountain pen and gel pen users
Aura Estelle Magnet Planners and selected planner books use Tomoe River / Sanzen paper, which many planner and fountain pen users choose for its smooth feel and thin profile. Because thin paper can show ghosting and every ink behaves differently, test your own fountain pens, gel pens, highlighters, and markers for dry time, smudging, and bleed-through.

Is Aura Estelle good for fountain pens?
Aura Estelle uses Tomoe River / Sanzen paper in selected planners, and that paper is widely loved by planner and fountain pen users. Customers should still test their own inks, nibs, pressure, dry time, ghosting, and bleed-through.

Choose dated if you want a clean calendar-year structure. Choose undated if you want to start right away, skip weeks, or use the planner more flexibly.
