Additional field(s): Printing & Publishing
English term or phrase: felt side
Definition from Steve Brown:
The "top" side of the paper as it is formed on the wire of the paper machine, and the side recommended for best printing results

Example sentence(s):
  • The felt side is a normal byproduct of the papermaking process, but paper to be printed on both sides can be given a felt finish on the wire side as well by pressing a felt blanket against the wire side before the water content is removed or by embossing dry paper. AllBusiness.com, Inc.
  • There are several known causes of inherent curl in paper. For example, the wire side and felt side of a sheet exhibit different degrees of fibre orientation, with wire side fibres tending to be more aligned in the machine direction than felt side fibres. PaperlinX
  • Mohawk papers are packed Felt side up in cartons and reams. The paper mill store.com
