Import Tips
• Document strip format as fan-folded for punchcard feeding to distinguish from rolls under other subheadings
• Confirm kraft paper composition with at least 80% sulfate wood fibers if challenged on base material
• Avoid printing motifs that are primary use, as chapter note would shift to Chapter 49
