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

Filzseite


Definition from Office-management:
Bei der Papierherstellung die dem Sieb entgegengesetzte Seite der Papierbahn, welche in der Regel füllstoffreicher und glatter ist als die Siebseite.

Example sentence(s):
  • FILZSEITE - Die bei der Blattbildung oben liegende, hellere, geschlossenere "Schönseite" der Papiere (Gegensatz: Unterseite = Siebseite). Durch neue Technologien wurde die frühere "Zweiseitigkeit" der Papiere fast vollständig reduziert. - Druckerei Lexikon  
  • Auf Langsiebpapiermaschinen gefertigtes Papier hat wegen der einseitigen Entwässerung i.d.R. eine ausgeprägte Zweiseitigkeit. Diese drückt sich neben den unterschiedlichen Oberflächen (die Siebseite und die glatte Filz- oder Schönseite) meist auch in einer sehr ungleichmäßigen Verteilung der Füllstoffe innerhalb des Papieres aus. - Wikipedia
