French translation:papier calque ?
Explanation:
Muriel:

This is just an educated guess. I know for a fact that in engineering, "papier calque" is used to produce "calques" or tracings. In English, the term "calk paper" or "caulking paper" is used to produce engineering tracings.

Does this fit within your general context?

La mesure des diamètres apparents à l'aide d'un double décimètre se révèle difficile, voire impossible dans le cas de fins croissants. On distribuera aux élèves des gabarits sur papier calque présentant des cercles de diamètres croissants (incrément de 1 mm).

De Nederlandse term is eigenlijk: "overtrekpapier" Dit is transparant.
