Proof paper

Any description of paper used for pulling proofs on. When a proof is required on the paper which is to be used for a work, the direction is given to “pull it on its own paper.” A certain quantity of proof paper should be kept wetted down, so that it may always be ready for use. The best paper for pulling proofs on is a thin but hard paper; it should be stout enough to bear writing on, so that the proof reader’s and author’s corrections may be made on it.
