Bleedthrough

In the context of stationery, bleedthrough is when ink soaks right through the page, reaching the other side. This makes it vividly visible on the other side, rendering it unusable for further writing.

Contrast with showthrough, in which the ink doesn't fully reach the other side of the page, but is nevertheless faintly visible from it.
