Abstract: A set for forming a card such as an identity card with a protective film. The set has a carrier sheet, a print carrier layer and a protective film layer. The set further includes at least one print carrier element stamped out from the print carrier layer, and at least one protective film element stamped out from the protective film layer. The print carrier element and the protective film element are disposed in a mirror image relative to a fold axis formed in the carrier sheet. The protective film layer is formed by a hot-seal film layer, and the protective film element is disposed on the carrier sheet with a horizontal gap having a predetermined distance from the adjoining regions of the hot-seal film layer.

Abstract: A lamination set with a supporting sheet, a print carrier and a protective element. The print carrier and the protective element are completely stamped out from the supporting sheet and held on the supporting sheet by adhesive strips in such a way that the protective element and the print carrier can be folded relative to one another about a folding axis, so that the print carrier is laminated with the protective element. The print carrier and the protective element are held spaced from one another on the supporting sheet and the folding axis about which the protective element can be folded relative to one another is formed in the supporting sheet.

Abstract: A printable sheet of material for a printing machine allows smooth entry into a printing machine and firm grips by transport rollers. The printable sheet has impressions or perforations at the end portion from which the printable sheet is inserted to the printing machine. The impressions or perforations provide reduced stiffness thereby allowing papers with heavy weight to be used in a printing machine.

Abstract: The invention relates to a set in sheet form as well as to apparatus and a method for producing such a set, which consists of at least one information carrier in card form with carrier material lying in the same plane, wherein the information carrier and the carrier material are completely separated from one another by means of uninterrupted stamped cuts or the like and for the releasable connection of information carrier and carrier material at least one narrow adhesive strip is provided which is coated with a glue on one side, covers at least a part of the stamped cuts between adjacent rows of information carriers and/or between information carriers and carrier material and adheres the components of the set to one another. The width of the information carriers perpendicular to the course of the adhesive strip amounts to a multiple of the width of the adhesive strip.
