sketch paper
Explanation:
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"
https://zromat-kieloo.deviantart.com/art/Bocetos-de-mantarra...

"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)


Explanation:
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... ).

Reference information:
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...
