          Claim 1 is illustrative:                                                    
               1.  A process for electrolytic treatment of copper foil,               
          comprising the steps of:                                                    
               (A)  applying a voltage across an anode and cathode, wherein           
          the anode and cathode are in contact with an electroplating                 
          composition containing a gelatin component;                                 
               (B)  removing organic particulate matter by contacting the             
          electroplating composition containing the organic particulate               
          matter with macroreticular resin; and                                       
               (C)  electrolytically treating said copper foil.                       

               The examiner relies upon the following references as                   
          evidence of obviousness:
