Bond Paper traditionally was a lighter weight paper, but currently can describe a variety of weights. Bond weight is determined by weighing 500 17”x22” sheets of bond grade paper.
Put another way, the "basis size" of bond paper is 17" x 22".
Common copy paper is usually referred to in bond weight - the most common paper is 20# bond (normal copy paper) followed by 24# bond and 28# (common color copy paper.)
24# bond = 60# text
28# bond = 70# text
32# bond = 80# text[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
