The required texture usually is not well defined by a single roughness, gloss, or haze specification because the relative amounts of low and high frequency roughness on the surface can both be important.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp dir=\"ltr\" align=\"justify\"\u003e　\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp dir=\"ltr\" align=\"justify\"\u003eLight scatter measured over a range of collection angles (or several individual angles) provides a fast, economical means to monitor, but not to quantify, texture over a range of roughness frequencies. Such measurements allow several degrees of freedom, such as incidence angle, scatter angle, light wavelength, aperture, spot size, etc., which need to be agreed upon between involved parties in order to be able to obtain comparable measurement results. Therefore means are required to uniquely define the measurement parameters, and to allow them to be easily exchanged.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp dir=\"ltr\" align=\"justify\"\u003e　\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp dir=\"ltr\" align=\"justify\"\u003eThis Guide covers the language necessary to define scatter measurement conditions to enable measurements that describe changes in the scatter pattern that are present with differences in surface texture.
