Cubic volume is of paper on skid, in roll or in case, in cubic feet.

Temperature difference between outdoor temperature upon arrival and temperature of room where paper is to be opened.

Hours shown are approximate time paper should stand unopened to come into balance with room temperature. Cubic volume is determined by multiplying (length in inches) x (width in inches) x (height in inches) and dividing by 1728.
