Editing Watermark (section)

=== Cylinder mould process ===
Another type of watermark is called the ''cylinder mould watermark''. It is a shaded watermark first used in 1848 that incorporates tonal depth and creates a [[greyscale]] image. Instead of using a wire covering for the dandy roll, the shaded watermark is created by areas of relief on the roll's own surface. Once dry, the paper may then be rolled again to produce a watermark of even thickness but with varying density. The resulting watermark is generally much clearer and more detailed than those made by the Dandy Roll process, and as such, Cylinder Mould Watermark Paper is the preferred type of watermarked paper for banknotes, passports, motor vehicle titles, and other documents where it is an important anti-counterfeiting measure.
