Steve Brown:
The "top" side of the paper as it is formed on the wire of the paper machine, and the side recommended for best printing results
Example sentences:
The felt side is a normal byproduct of the papermaking process, but paper to be printed on both sides can be given a felt finish on the wire side as well by pressing a felt blanket against the wire side before the water content is removed or by embossing dry paper. (AllBusiness.com, Inc. )
There are several known causes of inherent curl in paper. For example, the wire side and felt side of a sheet exhibit different degrees of fibre orientation, with wire side fibres tending to be more aligned in the machine direction than felt side fibres. (PaperlinX )
Mohawk papers are packed Felt side up in cartons and reams. (The paper mill store.com)

viltzijde
Definition from
Grafisch Woordenboek.nl:
De viltzijde van het papier is de bovenzijde van de papierbaan tijdens het productieproces. Vroeger werd het papier in de papiermachine in de droogunit tegen het vilt geperst, vandaar de naam viltzijde. De viltzijde is over het algemeen gladder (minder ruw) dan de zeefzijde.<br />De viltzijde is het tegenovergestelde van zeefzijde.
Example sentences:
Viltzijde De bovenzijde van het papier wordt de viltzijde genoemd. De relatief sterke vezels bevinden zich aan de andere zijde van het papier (zeefzijde), waardoor men eerst de zeefzijde dient te bedrukken of beprinten. (Océ Lexicon)
