Abstract: A multiple envelope assembly is made at a common location from a number of different webs of paper using a machine with multiple stations. A first envelope is adhesively secured to a second envelope which has an area at least 10% (preferably at least 20%) greater than the first envelope, and at least one of and preferably both of the outer surfaces of the first and second envelopes have common variable indicia (such as an addressee's name). The common variable indicia is also provided on one or more inserts in each of the first and second envelopes. Addressee indicia is provided on the outer surfaces of at least one of the first and second envelopes. The variable indicia is preferably applied using an ink jet printing assembly, while non-variable multi-color indicia is applied to the envelopes and/or inserts using multi-color flexographic print stations.

Abstract: A radio frequency antenna-containing element with good flexibility and bend properties is produced utilizing a flexible substrate, an adhesive, and a conductive foil or film. The adhesive and conductive foil or film are applied to the substrate so that they have the configuration of an RF antenna. This facilitates a method of making such an element in a high speed and in a simple manner that will function well, can be aesthetic or convey information as well as being functional, and with other optimum properties.
