15、 ISO 2009 All rights reservedForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interest
16、ed in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Co
17、mmission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the techn
18、ical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. ISO 27668-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 10, Technical product documentation. ISO 27668 consists of the follo
19、wing parts, under the general title Gel ink ball pens and refills: Part 1: General use Part 2: Documentary use (DOC) SANS 27668-1:2009This s tandard may only be used and printed by approved subscription and freemailing clients of the SABS .ISO 27668-1:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved vIntroducti
20、on This part of ISO 27668 is applicable to gel ink ball pens for general use. Part 2 of ISO 27668 is applicable to gel ink ball pens for documentary use. For documentary use, some requirements, in addition to those for general use, are necessary a) to assure the legibility of lettering, and b) for t
21、he handling and storage of documents over long periods of time (these requirements are often discussed with the archivist). An example of documentary use is the preparation of documents that are required as evidence. Furthermore, pens which meet the requirements for documentary use produce lines whi
22、ch are more resistant to modification (e.g. attempts to falsify a document) than those for general use. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) draws attention to the fact that it is claimed that compliance with this document may involve the use of a patent concerning aqueous gel in
23、k-filled ballpoint pens. The holder of this patent right has assured ISO that he is willing to negotiate licences under reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions with applicants throughout the world. In this respect, the statement of the holder of this patent right is registered with IS
24、O. Information may be obtained from: Mitsubishi Pencil Company Limited Patent Administration Department, 5.23-37, Higashi-ohi JP-Shinagawa, Tokyo 140-8537 Japan oomorihmpuni.co.jp Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights oth
25、er than those identified above. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
