To provide a machine-glazed paper excellent in printing aptitude on both sides, stiffness of paper, and bag-making applicability while being bulky.

The machine-grazed paper is obtained by passing wet paper 3 through between a Yankee dryer 1 and press roll 4A, 4B in a dryer part P, when a Yankee felt are not interposed between the press rolls 4A, 4B and the wet paper 3, the Bekk smoothness of the front surface pressed by the Yankee dryer 1 is set to 30-100 sec, the Bekk smoothness of the back surface pressed by the press rolls 4A, 4B is set to 10-50 sec, and the microtopograph of the back surface is set to not greater than 10 m and the density to 0.65-0.75 g/cm3.
