Treatment procedure for support losses, which consists
of the addition of new paper in missing areas of an
object.
See also: filling of losses; wet pulp fill; leaf casting; dry pulp fill.
Note: The new material is cut in the exact shape of the missing area - or as
close as possible - pasted and juxtaposed with a millimetric overlap onto
the original support. A satisfactory result depends on the use of an insert
paper similar to the original regarding weight, color and fiber orientation.
