If you are a subscriber to the online access to Standards and TIPs and you are in a hurry for new documents that have not yet been posted, you can send a request for TIPs to tip@tappi.org or for Standards to standards@tappi.org.

TAPPI Standards guidelines require that all TAPPI members receive notification of any proposed new Standard or TIPs.
