tellern tight edges Explanation: Wenn die Umgebungsluft trockener ist als die Restfeuchte des Papiers, gibt das Papier am Rand Feuchte ab und 'schrumpft', während die Mitte 'dick' bleibt. Dadurch wölbt sich das Papier an den Kanten nach oben. Der gegensätzliche Effekt, also Papier nimmt Feuchte aus der Umgebung auf, führt zur Randwelligkeit und wird häufig als wavy edges bezeichnet. |
