Cinematography — Manufacturer-printed, latent image identification on 16 mm, 35 mm and 65 mm motion-picture film — Specifications and dimensions
1.1 ISO 12222:2017 specifies the position and dimensions of machine-readable identification numbers on 16 mm, 35 mm and 65 mm motion-picture film. These numbers are intended to be a machine-readable version of the latent image key number. ISO 12222:2017 also specifies the encoding format to be used for these machine-readable numbers, as well as the area scanned and the spectral characteristics of the scanner.
1.2 ISO 12222:2017 also specifies the position, dimensions and content of human-readable identification (key) numbers for use on 16 mm, 35 mm and 65 mm motion-picture films intended for original photography or intermediate printing which also include the machine-readable key number described in 1.1.
NOTE These numbers normally are exposed onto the film at the time of manufacture.
1.3 ISO 12222:2017 further specifies an area that may be used for optional manufacturer-specific film-type identification information.
1.4 ISO 12222:2017 also specifies an area on the film which is not to be exposed by the film manufacturer, thus leaving it available for customer data recording.
1.5 Finally, ISO 12222:2017 specifies an optional frame line index mark for 35 mm and 65 mm film.

Frequently Asked Questions about ISO 12222:2017
When you purchase a standard from the Austrian Standards webshop (e.g. ÖNORM, ISO), a single-user licence is included as standard. This entitles a single person to use the standard. A multi-user licence is required if several employees need access. It enables company-wide, legally compliant use and sharing of standards.
Standardization thrives on expertise and participation. Anyone interested can play an active role in its further development – for example, by joining the relevant committee or a working group. In this way, you can help shape the content and contribute to advancing the state of the art.
If you have an extensive portfolio of standards, we recommend using a professional standards management tool. With effects 2.0, you can manage your standards centrally and efficiently. You can optimise your procurement processes and benefit from an integrated information and subscription service. This ensures you are always up to date and never miss any relevant developments.
