A paper web and method of making the paper web are disclosed. The paper web has a background portion and a non-embossed decorative pattern. The decorative pattern has at least one high basis weight region having a basis weight greater than the average basis weight of the surrounding background portion. The decorative pattern can include a number of discrete, decorative indicia. Each decorative indicia can be separated from adjacent decorative indicia by the background portion.

Method for making paper structures having a decorative pattern

An adhesive for applying to a creping surface in the process for dry creping tissue paper is disclosed. The adhesive comprises cationic starch and optionally a polyvinyl alcohol and a water-soluble, thermosetting, cationic polyamide-epihalohydrin resin. The adhesive provides high adhesion and doctorability for dry creping.

Soft, strong, and low dusting tissue paper webs useful in the manufacture of soft, absorbent sanitary products such as bath tissue, facial tissue, and absorbent towels are disclosed. The tissue papers comprise fibers such as wood pulp and a non-cellulosic, water insoluble particulate filler such as kaolin clay and possess biased surface properties.

Tissue paper webs useful in the manufacture of soft, absorbent sanitary products such as bath tissue, facial tissue, and napkins are provided. The composite average coarseness of the tissue papers is between about 11 mg/100 m and about 18 mg/100 m. The tissue paper comprise closed cell wall, chemically softened cellulose fibers further comprising coarse cellulose fibers such as those derived from CTMP or recycled sources. The cellulose fibers have enhanced lubricity such that they possess a depressed coefficient of friction (DCOF, in percentage points) related to the composite average coarseness, C, in mg/100 m, by the equation:
