Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which
a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented
on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-
governmental, in liaison with IISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a
vote.
International Standard IS0 12637-2 was prepared by Technical Committee
I SOnC 130, Graphic technology.
IS0 12637 consists of the following parts, under the general title Graphic
technology - Multilingual terminology of printing arts:
- Part I: Fundamental terms
- Par? 2: Screen printing terms

Introduction
Documentation gives rise to numerous internationa’i exchanges of both
intellectual and material nature. These exchanges often become difficult,
either because of the great variety of terms used in various fields or
languages to express the same concept, or because of the absence of, or
the imprecision of, useful concepts.
To avoid misunderstandings due to this situation and to facilitate such
exchanges, it is advisable to select terms to be used in various languages or
in various countries to express the same concept, and to establish definitions
providing satisfactory equivalents for the various terms in different languages.
In addition, this part of IS0 12637 consists of several parts prepared over a
long period of time and it may be that the preparation of the later parts
introduces small inconsistencies with the early ones.

Part 2:
Screen printing terms
1 Scope
This part of IS0 12637 contains measures for screen printing and is intended to facilitate international
communication in this field. It presents definitions of selected concepts relevant to the field of screen
printing.
In order to facilitate their translation into other languages, the definitions are worded so as to avoid, as far
as possible, any peculiarity attached to one language.
NOTE - In addition to terms used in one of the three official IS0 languages (English, French and Russian), this
part of IS0 12637 gives the equivalent terms in the German language; these are published under the responsibility
of the member body for Germany (DIN). However, only the terms and definitions given in the official languages can
be considered as IS0 terms and definitions.
