sketch paper

That's what this Colombian artist calls it (I think it's a Colombian term):

"Bocetos de mantarrayas | bolígrafo azul sobre papel edad media
Some sketches of giant manta ray (Manta birostris) | blue pen on sketch paper"

"Saltamontes, Mantis religiosa, escarabajo jirafa | bolígrafo azul en papel edad media
Grasshopper (Chorthippus brunneus) European Mantis (Mantis religiosa) Giraffe weevil (Trachelophorus giraffa) | blue pen on sketch paper"

agree neilmac : Yeah, I reckon it's just any rougher type used for drawing etc... I wonder where the Spanish term originated...

Cheers, Neil :) Yes, it's a strange term.
agree Jessica Noyes : I think this is as close as we're going to get. I did ask my artist friend, and she says there are dozens of different kinds of sketch pads for different mediums.

Kraft paper (sketch book)

Creo que, efectivamente, alude de forma específica a un sketch book con hojas tipo Kraft paper (neilmac ya lo menciona como posibilidad en referencias; también sugerido en WR: https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/papel-edad-media.173... ).

Construction paper?

The answers don't have any references, so I don't know if they're right.

Maybe it's this?

El papel "Edad media" es igual al papel "Periódico"?
Es decir, son el mismo papel pero lo llaman de diferente manera, ¿Correcto?
Y si no lo son, ¿En qué se diferencian?

...Mejor respuesta: No, aunque se parecen mucho, el papel edad media es más oscuro, más grueso y más fino que el papel periódico
Fuente(s): Yo y las revistas que editábamos en la U

... No el Papel edad media es mas fino...y mas poroso, lo que hace, que los dibujos a lapiz, queden mucho mejor...
