Information and documentation — Permanence and durability of writing, printing and copying on paper — Requirements and test methods
This document specifies requirements and test methods for evaluation of the permanence and durability of writing, printing and copying on paper stored in libraries, archives, and other protected environments for long periods of time, in which the information recorded on paper must be retained but not necessarily the full artistic quality. It is applicable to: — images on white permanent paper according to ISO 9706 or ISO 11108; — recording obtained from pens, stamps, copying machines and printers (that can produce monocoloured and/or multicoloured images). It does not apply to: — documents stored under harmful conditions, such as high humidity that promotes microbiological attack, excessive heat, radiation (e.g. light), high levels of pollutants, or the risk of water damage (or water contact). Since documents might be kept in non-protected environments before being transferred to protected environments, resistance to water and light is, however, of importance; — legal documents, e.g. banking documents, where the authenticity is of primary interest; — documents where the information contents are influenced by small colour changes; — documents within the scope of ISO/TC 42, Photography.
Information et documentation — Permanence et durabilité de l'écriture, de l'impression et de la reprographie sur des documents papier — Prescriptions et méthodes d'essai
La présente Norme internationale spécifie les prescriptions et les méthodes d'essai pour l'évaluation de la permanence et de la durabilité de l'écriture, de l'impression et de la reprographie sur des documents papier entreposés pendant de longues périodes dans des bibliothèques, centres d'archives et autres environnements protégés. Elle s'applique aux images sur papier, à l'exception des documents relevant du domaine d'application de l'ISO/TC 42, Photographie; aux images en couleurs. Il convient de conserver le contenu informationnel de ces dernières, mais il n'est pas nécessaire que ces images gardent leur parfaite qualité artistique. Les documents dont le contenu informationnel peut être altéré par de légers changements de couleur ne relèvent pas de la présente Norme internationale. Elle ne s'applique pas aux documents conservés dans des conditions inappropriées, par exemple en présence d'un fort taux d'humidité susceptible de favoriser les agressions microbiennes, de chaleur excessive, de rayonnements (lumineux par exemple), de forts taux de polluants, ou d'action de l'eau. Comme il peut arriver que des documents soient conservés dans des environnements non protégés avant d'être transportés dans des environnements protégés, la résistance à l'eau et à la lumière est un élément important; aux documents juridiques, tels que ceux du secteur bancaire, dont l'authenticité est une priorité majeure.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO 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 ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use
of (a) patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed
patent rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO had not received
notice of (a) patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are
cautioned that this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent
database available at www.iso.org/patents. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all
such patent rights.
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

Subcommittee SC 10, Requirements for document storage and conditions for preservation.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 11798:1999), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes are as follows.
— The reference material used for the testing of mechanical properties is defined and shall, prior to
testing, be handled according to 4.5.
— CIELAB measurements replaces optical density measurements, i.e. evaluation of monocoloured
printing shall be performed by CIELAB measurements. Accordingly, microdensitometers or
densitometers are no longer needed.
— Testing of colour fastness (5.2 and 6.2) shall be followed to evaluate recording (monocoloured and
multicoloured) for lightfastness (6.4), water resistance (6.5) and resistance to heat (6.8).
— Table 1 (see 5.1) presents, for printing devices, elaborated CIELAB lightness and colour shift
* * * *
requirements ΔL , Δa , Δb and, in addition, a new requirement of ΔE (Euclidean distance
ab
between two CIELAB coordinates).
— Table 2 (see 5.1) presents, for pens and stamps, requirement of maximum CIELAB lightness change

ΔL .
— Abrasion resistance (formerly referred to as resistance to wear) shall be evaluated by the degree of
abrasion (6.7) and is determined by CIELAB measurements prior to, and after, abrasion.

— Detailed descriptions of specimen preparation for pens and stamps, three printout templates
for specimen preparation from printers and copying machines and reporting forms are given in
Annexes.

Introduction
It is of great importance that recording of images on paper which, during long-term storage in libraries,
archives, and other protected environments, undergo little or no change in properties that affects its
use. The documents must preserve their information content and, thus, enable information storage and
information supply for the future. Accordingly, it is important to study the permanence and durability
of recording on paper.
Writing materials and printing equipment meeting the requirements given in this document can be
used in the preparation of paper documents intended for long-term storage and recurrent use. Such
documents contain permanent and durable images, i.e. images likely to be stable and thus undergo
little or no change in properties that influence legibility and the possibility of copying or converting the
paper documents to other data carriers.
Permanent paper and archival paper, used in the preparation of documents, may differ
