ISO Question

Does anyone know of an ISO or some other established standard for notebook paper rule-spacing. In the United States "narrow rule" seems to be 1/4" with "college rule" at 3/8" and "wide rule" 1/3 of an inch, but I don't know where this number comes from. Are these terms even used in the Commonwealth countries? Rorybowman 06:03, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Disc-Binding

The "disc-binding" link goes to "Circa Notebook". I'm creating a generic disc binding page to mention all the disc binding manufacturers --Ygorygorygor 13:41, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

I think this page should have a link to writing because writing or drawing is usually what happens in a notebook.Please correct me if i'm wrong.Goblyglook (talk) 03:04, 15 January 2008 (UTC) you are wrong it usually in a artbook

Padding Glue binding

We should add a new section in the binding wikipedia page or a new wikipedia article for padding glue/padding glue binding

Padding glue is a glue used in binding pad papers. It dries to a rubbery substance that is weaker than the paper. It is used if the leaves of paper in the pad are meant to be torn off Vmaldia (talk) 03:56, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

History/Priority of Invention

  • What is it that the Australian fellow referenced actually invented? What did Ampad's founder invent? Did they get patents?
  • What form of notebook?
    • How were the leaves attached? Glue? Stitching? Staples?
    • What kind of cover/backing? Cardboard? Cloth over cardboard?
    • What backing configuration? None? Back only? Front and back?

There must be an earlier history of this that we aren't getting in this article yet. DCDuring 15:15, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

All I have are digitized images from black and white microfilm, but the transcript of the Lincoln assassination trial was written out on paper that looks exactly like today's legal pad, same size and ruling, and bound at the top. A bit earlier than Ampad, 1865. James Galloway (talk) 23:05, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
