    Abstract: A method and work material for making embossed blanks for sample packages and other free-standing three dimensional display items from a sheet-type work material includes a printer for printing a graphic image on the work material, and a processing mechanism for performing work operations on the work material. The sheet-type work material has a top layer of sheet material, an intermediate layer of sheet material, and a carrier layer of sheet material, with a first layer of adhesive material bonding the top and intermediate layers of sheet material together, and a second layer of adhesive material bonding the intermediate and carrier layers of sheet material together. Any, all, or a combination of the top, intermediate, or carrier layers of sheet material may have shape retaining deformability characteristics to aid in holding an embossed design in the work material. In operation, the printer prints an image onto the work material, which is then advanced to the processing mechanism where a creaser places indented fold lines into the work material, a knife cuts the blank from the work material, and an embosser, moving in either a rasterwise or vectorial motion, embosses a design into the work material. The blank can then be removed from the work material and erected into a package or other free-standing three dimensional display item.

    Abstract: An apparatus for automatically creating a simulated mosaic controllably discharges tile pieces onto plate material and secures the tile pieces in place such that the plates with the tile pieces am freestanding permitting the plates themselves to be an ordered arrangement of sections of the mosaic once cemented to the substrate. Many different forms may be had for the plate material, including ones that are pressure or heat activatable to bond with the tile pieces or ones that are mechanically connectable.

    Abstract: In a die board for cutting and/or creasing sheet-type work material, a base is provided that includes a first upper surface and a second lower surface. At least one slot extends along the first upper surface and includes a first slot section extending from said first upper surface at least part-way through the die board base. The at least one slot also includes a second slot section extending from said second lower surface at least part-way through the die board base. The first and second slot sections each have a width with at least one of the slot section widths being adapted to grip and retain at least one die-board rule.

    Abstract: A process for color overprinting onto a thermally printable receiving surface includes using a thermal printer and transfer foils to print a first layer of color printing medium onto a portion of a receiving surface, and then using the thermal printer to print at least a second layer of translucent colored printing medium onto the receiving surface on top of the first layer. An index of overprint colors can be created by the process for use in matching colors printable by the overprinting process to the colors on an original graphic. The index may be used manually or in a computerized printing process to determine the number of transfer foils required to reproduce an original graphic, and their order of use.

    Abstract: An apparatus for sequentially transmitting a plurality of multipage documents via a facsimile includes an optical scanner, an optical character recognition apparatus, and a feature recognizer apparatus. The present apparatus allows hands-free transmittal of several multipage documents by automatically determining from the document's cover sheet the values of operating parameters, such as the telephone numbers of destination facsimile machines and the number of pages in the document to transmit. Human intervention is not required to dial phone numbers or separate documents that are to be transmitted to different destinations. Moreover, the present apparatus allows for direct transmittal of copies to those persons indicated in the document to receive the same without the need to know the other recipients of the document.
