Information for practitioners

 
Paper UPM is launching a new brochure at Drupa 2008 with background information on its sheetfed offset papers.  
UPM papers undergo strict quality controls throughout the entire production process. Knowing the test methods and being able to classify the technical measured values is also a great advantage for paper buyers and printers when comparing different paper qualities. Terms explained clearlyIn the new brochure "Paper testing and paper selection", UPM explains the most important basic properties of sheet-fed offset papers and relevant test methods. Terms such as color location or standard illuminants are also explained, as are methods for checking mottling, run-off behavior and fold breakage. In the brochure, UPB also provides practical tips on paper selection and ordering and provides technical printing information on the wood-free coated and uncoated grades UPM Finesse and UPM Fine. The brochure is the first edition of the new series "Printing and Paper Fact Books" with technical background information on sheetfed offset papers.
