14、es (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations
15、, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further m
16、aintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This International Standard was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org
17、/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be i

21、between the graphic papermaking industry and the printing industry based on their need to be able to produce quality printing. Paper properties and their measurement are presented and their use in the printing context is described.This International Standard describes data to be provided for reliabl
22、e printing. A substrate description can be assessed to be in conformance with this International Standard, not a substrate itself.Printing press settings depend on paper grade, and several paper properties are required in order to define a grade.Paper measurement standards developed within ISO/TC 6
23、are referenced in this International Standard. They were mainly used to develop paper industry test methods and allow the papermaking processes to be reproducible and reliable within paper mills. It is advisable that paper purchasing specifications be based on paper industry standards. This recommen
24、dation also applies to paper proofing substrates. Special requirements for paper substrates for the reliable production of printed products need to be communicated on the basis of standards developed by ISO/TC 6 whenever possible.The evaluation of colour of the unprinted paper is critical to define
25、prepress white point settings. This measurement can be performed with either diffuse:0 integrating sphere instruments (papermakers equipment) or 45:0 instruments (printers equipment). Results are often close if the UV calibration is performed correctly. This International Standard specifies 45:0 ins
26、truments (printers equipment) to perform this evaluation as per ISO 13655, because of their wide availability at printers facilities.For the evaluation of printed colours, measurement devices are developed according to ISO 13655 which differ from the colour measurement devices which conform to ISO 2
27、469 and ISO 5631-1, ISO 5631-2 and ISO 5631-3. The latter type of instrument is used within paper mills for quality evaluation during paper manufacturing and unprinted paper colour evaluation.Properties linked to the printing process (e.g. dimensions, blistering and picking resistance in offset, mis
28、sing dots in gravure) are not described in this International Standard, since they are implicitly needed when purchasing the paper meant for this printing process.Properties that are not based on ISO standards are not described here.The bibliography lists basic references in graphic technology stand

32、be printed in rotogravure, cold-set web offset, heat-set web offset, sheet-fed offset, and flexographic printing processes and to proofing substrates.Where multiple methods exist, the preferred procedure and its International Standard are specified.All methods for measuring of properties specified i
