English term or phrase: felt side
Definition from Steve Brown:
The "top" side of the paper as it is formed on the wire of the paper machine, and the side recommended for best printing results

Example sentence(s):
  • The felt side is a normal byproduct of the papermaking process, but paper to be printed on both sides can be given a felt finish on the wire side as well by pressing a felt blanket against the wire side before the water content is removed or by embossing dry paper. AllBusiness.com, Inc.
  • There are several known causes of inherent curl in paper. For example, the wire side and felt side of a sheet exhibit different degrees of fibre orientation, with wire side fibres tending to be more aligned in the machine direction than felt side fibres. PaperlinX
  • Mohawk papers are packed Felt side up in cartons and reams. The paper mill store.com

viltzijde
Definition:
De viltzijde van het papier is de bovenzijde van de papierbaan tijdens het productieproces. Vroeger werd het papier in de papiermachine in de droogunit tegen het vilt geperst, vandaar de naam viltzijde. De viltzijde is over het algemeen gladder (minder ruw) dan de zeefzijde.
De viltzijde is het tegenovergestelde van zeefzijde.
