          Application No. 08/876,030                                                  


          and bounds of the claimed invention with the precision                      
          required by the second paragraph of 35 U.S.C. § 112.  See In                
          re Hammack, supra.                                                          


               If the appellant's disclosure fails to set forth an                    
          adequate definition as to what is meant by the terminology                  
          "highly calendering" in claim 17, the examiner should                       
          determine if the appellant has failed to particularly point                 
          out and distinctly claim the invention as required by the                   
          second paragraph of                                                         
          35 U.S.C. § 112 and if so make the appropriate rejection.
