Abstract: Pressure sensitive carbonless transfer sheets are made capable of producing clear images by light impact marking means in multi-part carbonless forms packs containing at least six of the sheets, such as 8-12 sheets, by coating a chromogenic material onto a paper sheet characterized by a basis weight of 9-12 lbs of a ream of 500 sheets of paper each having dimensions of 17 by 22 inches, a thickness of 40-50 microns, a Gurley porosity of 400-4000 seconds, and a Bendtsen smoothness of 90-260 ml/min on the wire side and 60-280 ml/min on the felt side. Bar codes are also transferrable with good scannability through forms packs containing three or more sheets.
