Abstract: An absorbent article may comprise a web comprising at least one continuous layer that forms a portion of a backsheet and a portion of laterally opposing side flaps. The web may be folded laterally inward to form the side flaps. The article may further comprise an exteriorly viewable first design field disposed on a surface of a backsheet, interiorly viewable second and third design fields disposed on a surface of first and second side flaps, respectively, viewable fourth and fifth design fields disposed on a surface of first and second abdominal stretch panels, respectively, and an absorbent assembly.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve patterns on substrate surfaces, such as nonwoven webs or fabrics, plastic films, and laminates thereof, that cause the substrate surfaces to exhibit a three-dimensional appearance. In some embodiments, the three-dimensional appearance of the substrate surface resembles protrusions and indentions indicative of threads in woven cloths. The patterns are created by printing a surface of a substrate, as opposed to deforming the substrate such as by embossing. Embodiments of the patterns include a plurality of repeating shapes or macro-units disposed on the substrate surface.
