Also, processes for incorporating such CMPs into a paper substrate other than by a printing technique, such as, for example, by using a size press or spraying, as well as processes for identifying the presence of such CMPs incorporated into a paper substrate sheet with an infrared (IR) pigment sensor of, for example, a copier or printer for the purpose of adjusting the quantity of printer pigment deposited on a paper substrate sheet or to determine whether the paper substrate sheet is an authentic or counterfeit document.
