As far as I know, and from my ongoing use of CBP, it is a satin finish paper and only available as "one finish."

Although the Photosatin Premium RC is also an alpha cellulous paper it is designed to have the look of the original Silver Halide prints. These are, however, two separate grades...

Thanks for the authoritative response, Canson21.

How about some Canson Baryta Photographique in 17x25" sheets?
There are a bunch of us here who would buy it. The curl induced by using rolls is undesireable and I wouldn't mind paying the cost differential for having it nicely boxed. Red River has a new Baryta paper in 17x25, but I'd rather use Canson.
