Instead of rubbing out mistakes, which leaves smudges and
sometimes tears the pages in my writing books, I have come up
with the idea of sticky back lines attached to a pice of card
so when you have made a mistake peel off the line and stick a
new one on.

Der Blanco Roller compact ist ein praktischer Korrekturroller, den es in zwei Breiten gibt -- denn in jeder Beziehung gibt es mal was zu verbessern. [UnaBubba, Nov 27 2001, last modified Oct 04 2004]

Tippex, the company that makes the white quick-drying paint that you can cover up mistakes with, already has a product that appears to be rolls of white tape that you can place over mistakes. |
|
| |
If I paint out all my letters with the Tippex it also paints
out the line I'm supposed to be writing on, causing
wobbly, not in a straight line writing. The sticky line
would overcome this problem. |

People still write on paper? |
|
| |
can't believe a smart boy like you makes mistakes!
could you not amend the mistake so that it is right e.g. Henry VIII had five wives.... and one that died. |
|
| |
Baked. Avery Denison makes something like this. You can get it in varying widths. It comes in a tape dispenser package. |
|
| |
Or at least it did. I used to use it by the case, fifteen years ago when I worked for company that was doing a lot of microfilming. It may have disappeared with the typewriter. |
|
| |
Note, the noun "rubber" generally means something different in the USA. |
|
| |
Pelikan does a product called Blanco Roller. It does exactly what you're asking. No wobbly lines. They also do glue and highlighter rollers. |
|
| |
Correction fluid or tape would cover the rule line on the paper or incompletely over the writing. I believe the idea is for correciton tape that has a rule line printed on it. Neither [PeterSealy]'s nor [UnaBubba]'s link point to such a product. |
|
| |
The Pelikan site [UnaBubba] linked to has a product which eliminates "Royal Blue" ink, but I assume that means there's a chemical reaction with a particular ink product. |
|
| |
Erasable ink pens are baked and would probably be the best solution to this problem. |
|
| |
[po] I thought that all 6 of Henry VIII's wives died. |
|
| |
[phoenix], it eliminates all ink. I have one in the drawer of my desk here. It's a very useful item. |
|
| |
Who uses ruled paper anymore? |
|
| |
[cp], thay all have, apart from Liz Taylor. |
|
| |
Relative to Henry VIII, they lived or died as follows:
Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived. |
|
| |
"ere, have you got the last one's email address? |
|
| |
lewisgirl shouldn't that be...
died, died horribly, died, died, died horribly, died? |
|
| |
The third one died pretty horribly, too.
Horrible deaths was something of a speciality in the sixteenth century. |
