You should choose paper with a smooth surface. We recommend choosing a paper that is labeled as having a weight of 20 to 24 pounds. When choosing paper, select a white or off-white paper that is acid-free and designed for archival purposes. The paper on which a will is printed should be of archival quality so that, over the course of many decades, it will not deteriorate, become brittle, yellow, or interact with the ink in a way that causes the ink to fade or smear. At the very least, it needs to be able to last the rest of your life. Unlike most printed documents, an original signed will may need to last a very long time. The remaining instructions, below, will guide you through the process of finalizing ( executing) your simple will.
