printed in very small type

a print of the microfilmed application form

an obsolete form of microphotograph which can hold many pages of text on a 9"x6" card, viewed with the aid of a microprint reader (in Strozier, located in the basement, in the Documents area). It is similar to a microfiche, but has positive images of the pages printed on an opaque card.

Extremely small print that is only legible when highly magnified. It is used as a security element on banknotes and other documents at risk of being forged. The image resolution of color copiers and other similar machines is insufficient to reproduce microprint.
