TECHNICAL NOTE

Our microfilm publications have been prepared and produced in accordance with recommended and established guidelines for the production of microform of superior quality. These conform to the recommendations of the standard guides to good microforming and micropublishing practice.

Attention should be drawn to the nature of the original material. A few manuscript documents consist of faintly legible correspondence and records written with a variety of inks, pens or pencils and on paper which has become severely discoloured or stained, or which is so thin that there is show through that renders  the original document difficult to read. A few items consist of carbon copies of documents and these again pose problems where the original is very faint. Occasionally volumes have been tightly bound and documents are partially obscured in the inner margin resulting in a small amount of text loss or distortion. These original characteristics present difficulties of image and contrast which stringent tests and camera alteration cannot entirely overcome. Every effort has been made to minimise these difficulties. The material is clearly foliated. Each frame is filmed with a vertical strip target identifying the relevant Public Record Office piece number in Class FO 262.

The Public Record Office has exercised the most responsible care in the filming of this unique collection and this microfilm publication meets the standards established by the Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).
