Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Event	Subsequent Event Subsequent to March 31, 2018, management completed and reviewed with the Board of Directors a broad scope analysis of various initiatives to improve margins and optimize the portfolio of products and manufacturing footprint in the Fine Paper & Packaging segment. This review included an evaluation of multiple options, including capital investment, manufacturing cost reduction and distribution cost minimization initiatives, repositioning of the product portfolio and asset divestiture. Included in this analysis was consideration of divestiture of a manufacturing facility located in Brattleboro, Vermont. Historically, the Brattleboro mill has manufactured products primarily for the office supply category, and more recently has been adversely impacted by manufacturing inefficiencies due to changes in product category and grade complexity. Following the review, it was determined that this facility is not a strategic part of the Fine Paper & Packaging manufacturing footprint, given the nature of the office supply category. On April 24, 2018, the Board of Directors authorized the CEO to initiate a process to sell the Brattleboro mill and associated research and office facilities. In May 2018, the disposal group of assets and liabilities will be separately reported on the balance sheet and classified as Held for Sale. Upon classifying the disposal group as Held for Sale, the Company will test the individual assets of the disposal group for possible impairment. The disposal group will be measured at fair value, less costs to sell. The amount of any impairment charge is subject to determination of the potential sales price and value of the disposal group. The preliminary estimate of such non-cash charge could be in the range of $30 to $40 million. The disposal group and any impairment charge will be reported primarily within the Fine Paper and Packaging business segment and a lesser amount in the Other business segment.
