A one-page encyclopedia entry defining calendering, the finishing process that gives paper and textile fabrics such as linen and cotton a glazed or polished surface by passing them between pressure rolls. It describes calender construction (3 to 12 rolls of wood, paper, cotton, or heated metal), starching and paraffin or soap additions, friction glazing, and watering patterns. It closes with references to Beaumont and Edge and cross-references to Beetling and Paper.
