What is microfilm targeting?
Microfilm targeting is the use of targets (graphic or textual images) produced on a sheet of paper for the production of microfilm. Targets provide the reader with content information such as its creation and production, accuracy, corrections, and imperfections (on original documents). For more information on targeting, see State ArchivesTechnical Publication #9, Producing High Quality Microfilm, pg. 24, and #11, Introduction to Micrographics, pgs. 11-15.
