9、ds 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 organi

10、zations, 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. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in

11、 the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 %

12、of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 12635 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 130, Graphi

13、c technology. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 12635:1996). It has been extensively revised in all sections; requirements for perforations and designations have been deleted. ISO 12635:2008(E) ISO 2008 All rights reserved v Introduction This International Standard stip

14、ulates dimensional properties of printing plates for offset printing. While not all present plate dimensions will conform to this International Standard, the specifications for dimensions serve as an effort to reduce the multitude of possible formats to a reasonable level that simplifies manufacture

15、 and communications between plate, platesetter and press manufacturers, and the printer. In this revision, the requirements for perforations and designations have been deleted. According to recent developments in dimensions of printing plates, especially within the thickness dimension, new thickness

16、 categories have been implemented. Due to the increasing adoption of CtP, additional attributes have been introduced to be applied to plates with these new devices.
