splice
1. A join made by bringing together two pieces of
film or paper, by means of an adhesive or heat, so
that they function as one piece when run through a
camera, processing machine, split boards or other
apparatus. Lap splices are those in which the two
pieces overlap and are joined, while butt splices
are those where the two pieces are abutted and
welded with no overlap. 2. The joining of the ends
of two or more webs of paper to make a continuous
roll. Materials used for this include adhesives,
gummed tapes, or splicing tissue. (17 , 156 )
