Fountain pens are sophisticated writing utensils that require a little more know-how to fill and use. They are typically used with dye-based inks, which are contained in disposable cartridges or in refillable converters. The tip of a fountain pen is called a nib, and the size of the nib affects the flow of ink from it. Though fountain pens can be used on regular paper, a thicker paper is recommended, because the pen’s higher output of watery ink is likely to bleed through a thin page.

Pens - Draft - Content -
A pen is a writing instrument used to apply ink to a surface, usually paper, for writing or drawing.[1] Historically, reed pens, quill pens, and dip pens were used, with a nib dipped in ink. Ruling pens allow precise adjustment of line width, and still find a few specialized uses, but technical pens such as the Rapidograph are more commonly used. Modern types include ballpoint, rollerball, fountain and felt or ceramic tip pens.[2]
