Scope:

1.1 This standard describes the methods and procedures for the examination and preparation of drawings for microfilming and techniques for their rehabilitation where necessary. It also identifies the responsibility of the custodian or originator, and the microfilm technicians in the processing of sub-standard or defective drawings, including those that do not conform to CAN-72.7-M. 1.2 The success of a good microfilming program for drawings depends upon the design of the system. For drawing offices that may be considering such a program, guidelines are included in Appendix A to this standard to ensure that the system design is compatible with the desired objectives.
