Shoe size "Footwear - Sizing - Vocabulary and terminology"; currently in development are companion standards ISO/TS 19409 "Footwear - Sizing - Measurement of last dimensions" and ISO/TS 19410 "Footwear - Sizing - Inshoe measurement". The adult shoe sizes are calculated from typical last length, which is converted from foot length in mm by adding an allowance of two shoe sizes: where formula_13 is foot length in mm. Direct conversion between adult UK, European and Mondopoint shoe size systems is derived as follows: Exact foot lengths may contain repeating decimals because the formulas include division by 3; in practice, approximate interval steps of
Sizing with the goal of allowing inks and paints to remain on the surface of the paper and to dry there, rather than be absorbed into the paper. This provides a more consistent, economical, and precise printing, painting, and writing surface. This is achieved by curbing the paper fibers' tendency to absorb liquids by capillary action. In addition, sizing affects abrasiveness, creasibility, finish, printability, smoothness, and surface bond strength and decreases surface porosity and fuzzing. There are three categories of papers with respect to sizing: "unsized" ("water-leaf"), "weak sized" ("slack sized"), and "strong sized" ("hard sized"). Waterleaf has low water resistance
