Re: [BKARTS] rolls of paper and grain

[Charles Schermerhorn <skim72ces@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

No, it's parallel with the sides of the roll - in otherwords, it goes the
entire length of the paper as it unrolls.  To make sheets of short-grain -
e.g. grain that is parallel to the short side, you need paper wide enough to
allow for the long-dimension of your sheets to fit side to side on that
paper.  See attachment.
