Tech/Engineering - Medical: Instruments
German term or phrase: Briefmarken
In a text describing testing procedures for medical equipment.

1.1 Allgemeine Erläuterungen

Die Grafiken sollen von ihrer Darstellung her so groß und deutlich sein, dass eine klare Auswertung möglich ist. „Briefmarken“, nachträglich bearbeitete Kurvenverläufe, fehlende oder unsinnige („zu große“) Skalierungen sind zu vermeiden. Vorgaben zum Verwendungsweck des Prüfberichtes - Weitergabe an Dritte, auszugsweise Veröffentlichung, Kopierverbote usw. - sind deutlich im Bericht anzugeben, der Bericht ist durchzunummerieren. Den Laboratorien wird empfohlen, einen Hinweis aufzunehmen, dass der Prüfbericht ohne die schriftliche Zustimmung des Prüflaboratoriums nicht auszugsweise vervielfältigt werden darf.

I cannot see what Briefmarken / "stamps" have to do with the context of presenting the test results.
