Discussion

Non-ProZ.com Jul 10, 2004:
Hey folks, thanks for your discussions about this... I really think "plain or headed paper" is the best plain English in this case, so that's what I'm going to choose... I had never heard of membretado before, and am going to give points to Veronica because she told me what it meant first, although company letterhead would not be the most elegant option in this case... Thank you all!!!
Non-ProZ.com Jul 10, 2004:
I mean headed paper - that's what I'm going to put - "plain or headed paper"

Thanks folks!
Non-ProZ.com Jul 10, 2004:
aha, company letterhead perhaps then? Thanks Veronica...

My basis for this is pure grammar. \"Paper\" is the noun and \"Letterhead\" is the modifying descriptive adjective.

An even more generic possibility is: Letterhead stationery

I found 196,000 hits on google. Below is an example:

... how easy it is to design, preview and order custom printed. business cards, letterhead/stationery and envelopes online! ... clients demand. Letterhead/Stationery. DESIGN ONLINE! ...
www.printing2day.com/ - 43k - Cached

Again, \"Stationery\" is the noun and \"Letterhead\" is the adjective.
\"Papel Membretado\" in Spanish follows the same grammar guideline. \"Papel\" is the noun and \"Membretado\" is the descriptive adjective modifying the noun.
Peer comment(s):

agree Henry Hinds : Could be "company" or personal, but with a letterhead. Generic is best here, I think.

Letter head

Membrete means the name, adress, and logo from somebody or some company... I see letter, or lettered head paper, in Simon's, but I'm not shure.
Luck.
