SMPTE 313-2008

1 Scope

1.1 This standard specifies the position and dimensions of 120 perforation repeat machine-readable identification numbers. These numbers are intended to be a machine-readable version of the latent image key number. This standard also specifies the encoding format to be used for these machine-readable numbers, as well as the area scanned and the spectral characteristics of the scanner.

1.2 This standard also specifies the position, dimensions, and content of human-readable identification (key) numbers for use on 65-mm motion-picture films intended for original photography or intermediate printing which also include the machine-readable key number described in 1.1. These numbers normally will be exposed onto the film at the time of manufacture.

1.3 This standard further specifies an area that may be used for optional manufacturer-specific film-type identification information.

1.4 This standard also specifies an area on the film which is not to be exposed by the film manufacturer, thus leaving it available for customer data recording.

1.5 Finally, this standard specifies optional frameline index marks.
