    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi all,<br>
      <br>
      thanks for this nice summary and advertising of the SPNHC wiki on
      this subject!<br>
      <br>
      Just want to add a little detail on ISO standardisation of paper:
      as to my knowledge, these refer exclusively to the surface and
      bottom layer of the paper, but not necessarily for the pulp. Of
      course ISO 9706 surly is the highest quality one can aim for, but
      we had for example issues with archival paper of highest possible
      quality being produced by a small company which has full control
      on all ingredients, and which is highly recommended by paper
      restaurateurs and libraries: Either binders or fillers of the pulp
      immediately started swelling and corrupted the structural
      integrity of the paper.<br>
      <br>
      Also "imprinting" can produce different results: even though laser
      printing (for dry labels) has been recommended by paper
      restaurateurs because of the long-term stability of the pigments,
      successful printing and long-term stability of the print requires
      some sort of roughness of the paper surface, otherwise the printed
      letters do not get imprinted into the paper. Usage of archival
      quality ink cartridges - where the ink is soaked into the paper
      and penetrates it - has advantages.<br>
      <br>
      You should therefore test the paper you would consider useful in
      your collection with your printers first, as the label is a result
      of paper quality AND printing method. Even good paper can give bad
      results if the printing method doesn't work with this paper ...<br>
      <br>
      All the best<br>
      Dirk <br>
