Compound Perforation Notation Formatter (e.g. 11x12.5)
Format explicit horizontal x vertical perforation gauge; no gauge inference. Caller independently verifies observations, reference edition, units and applicability; not a grading-service certificate, authentication, conservation treatment, actual market price or legal/insurance entitlement.
Description
Compound perforation notation records horizontal and vertical gauges together.
Compound perforation notation records horizontal and vertical gauges together.1
This formatter joins supplied positive numeric gauges with lowercase x, without measuring teeth or selecting a catalogue rounding convention.
When to use Compound Perforation Notation Formatter (e.g. 11x12.5)
Use this tool when you need to summarize the supplied collecting records or matched observations. Prepare independently verified observations, reference edition/context, and matching units or currency basis.
How to use Compound Perforation Notation Formatter (e.g. 11x12.5) and understand its results
- Prepare independently verified observations, reference edition/context, and matching units or currency basis.
- Enter horizontalGauge, verticalGauge, following the field table and calculation rules below, then run the tool.
- Read compoundNotation. For result objects, inspect the nested output fields below, including any missing evidence or selected indices.
- Correct any input issues and run again. Before using a successful result, review its units, signs, evidence coverage, and stated model or reference assumptions.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| horizontalGauge | Horizontal gauge | number | Required |
| verticalGauge | Vertical gauge | number | Required |
Require positive finite horizontal and vertical gauges and use JavaScript number string conversion to form horizontal+x+vertical. Extreme numbers may use exponent notation, so output is not guaranteed to round-trip through the stricter decimal-only decoder.
notation=String(horizontal)+"x"+String(vertical) Read these symbols with the field meanings and branch or reference rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| compoundNotation | Compound notation | string |

}Limitations and assumptions
Observations, reference edition, and applicability are independently supplied. Arithmetic and reference summaries do not provide authentication, a certified grade, or an actual market price.
Missing required fields, unknown fields, wrong types, and violated calculation rules return input issues. Numeric values must be finite; nonfinite numeric outputs are rejected.
Alternative or Complementary methods
For a related task, use Harrow Perf Notation Decoder: Compound perforation notation can express horizontal and vertical gauges as two positive numbers separated by x. This decoder parses that literal notation and preserves the numeric distinction without identifying a perforating machine. For a complementary step, use Perforation Gauge Stamps per 2cm Calculator: A perforation gauge expresses the number of tooth intervals over twenty millimetres. This calculator scales a measured interval count, which differs from counting the holes at both ends.
