Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
FINANCIAL INFORMATION BY BUSINESS SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA FINANCIAL INFORMATION BY BUSINESS SEGMENT
The Company’s three business segments, Europe, Latin America and North America, are organized by geography. These segments are consistent with the internal structure used to manage these businesses. Each of our segments derive their revenue from the manufacture and sale of paper and pulp products.

Business segment operating profits are used by the Company’s management to measure the earnings performance of its businesses. Management believes that business segment operating profit provides investors and analysts useful insights into our operating performance. We define business segment operating profit as our income from continuing operations before income taxes calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding net interest expense, the impact of foreign exchange on a note receivable from our Brazilian subsidiary, and net business and corporate special items.

The chief operating decision maker uses business segment operating profit to allocate resources (primarily capital spending) for each segment predominantly during the annual strategic planning, budgeting and forecasting processes. The chief operating decision maker also considers actual performance variances in business segment operating profits on a monthly basis to assess the performance of the segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the President and Chief Executive Officer.

Sales by business segment are determined using a management approach and include intersegment sales (which are eliminated in consolidation). External sales in the External Net Sales table are defined as those that are made to parties outside the Company’s combined group.
