A paper used for duplicating drawings, figures,
etc. It may be either a translucent, greaseproof
paper, or a bond or manifold paper treated
chemically or oiled so as to increase its
transparency. It is produced from cotton fiber,
chemical wood pulps, or combinations thereof, in
basis weights ranging from 7 1/4 to 16 pounds (17

proper receptivity to drawing ink and
transparency, so that prints from the tracings can
be made. (17 , 316 )
