  • Patent number: 7383978
    Abstract: A single blank is provided with four removable sections which are sub-divided by lines of weakening and fold lines. The blank is foldable along a longitudinal line and transverse line to form the four sections into a four layer product. Upon removable from the blank, the four layer product may be manipulated to expose different sub-sections and, thus, provide different pictorial representations depending upon the imaging of the sub-sections. The sub-sections are imaged in a coordinated manner to produce different scenes.

  • Patent number: 6874820
    Abstract: The blank is made of a sheet of paper of a size suitable for processing through imaging machines, such as ink jet printers and laser printers. For example, the blank may be made 8½ by 11½ inches. The blank includes a front side for receiving printing thereon and at least one removable section in the card. The removable section is formed with a fold line that divides the section into two equal parts for subsequent folding onto each other. Both parts of the removable section are coated with an adhesive on the back side and a polymer sheet, for example, of polyester, is provided over the adhesive on one part of the removable section. A backing sheet, for example, of silicone coated paper is provided over the adhesive on the other part of the removable section. The blank may be provided with a plurality of removable sections so that multiple coupons may be formed from a single blank. In addition, the blank may be printed on both the front side and back side in order to provide information.

  • Patent number: 6435967
    Abstract: A tab marking system for supplying discrete tabs provided with repositionable glue disposed adjacent first terminal ends thereof which may be adhered to multi-page documents to flag particular pages. The tab marking system comprises a first ply of paper having at least two discrete tabs die cut therein separated by a spacer and a second ply of paper disposed under the first ply covering at least a portion of the discrete tabs. A barrier coating is disposed on the second ply in facing relation to the repositionable glue to prevent adhesion of the repositionable glue to the second ply. Embodiments of the invention include an adhering agent disposed on the discrete tabs adjacent second terminal ends thereof to removably hold second terminal ends integral with the first ply of paper until removal of the tabs is desired.

  • Patent number: 6403184
    Abstract: A laminated form is made of multiple plies which are laminated together. One or both of the outer plies is die-cut to form a plurality of spaced apart or contiguous removable labels. Each label has one portion on the underside provided with a pressure-sensitive adhesive to allow the label to be temporarily attached, for example, to a page of a catalog. The adhesive-free portion of each label may be held in place in the form by ties or by adhesive on the opposed ply with a barrier coat therebetween. The labels may be disposed in a random pattern on each ply with suitable software provided to image the labels in distinct manners.

  • Patent number: 6283362
    Abstract: A composite letterhead/envelope form is provided which can be fed through a printer for imaging both the letterhead and the envelope in one pass. The form includes a letterhead of substantially a standard size which is releasably attached to a flap of a separately fabricated envelope. After imaging, the letterhead is readily removed from the envelope, folded, and then stuffed into the pocket of the envelope. A flap of the envelope seals the pocket of the envelope. The letterhead may be of heavier stock than the envelope.

  • Patent number: 6189936
    Abstract: The composite label form includes two sections both of which is to receive printed information and one which carries various labels. The label section includes a removable prescription label in a front ply which upon removal pulls a carrier section or insert from a back ply which, in turn, with the prescription label carries a plurality of information labels from the front ply. The prescription label can then be peeled from the carrier section or insert and applied to a prescription vial. One or more of the information labels may also be peeled from the carrier insert and applied to the prescription vial.

  • Patent number: 5776571
    Abstract: The combined form and label construction has a label portion with a glue frame on the back side for securement to a shipping container. A form portion is secured to the label portion for processing through a laser printer or the like to receive information. In one embodiment, the form portion is removable from the label portion to permit the label portion to be secured along three lines of glue to a shipping carton to form a pocket therewith. The form portion is then folded and inserted into the pocket and the remainder of the label portion is then secured to the shipping carton to seal the pocket. In the embodiments, the form portion is folded under the label portion within the glue frame prior to securement of the label portion to a container. A tear strip in the label portion allows for opening of the pocket to permit removal of the form portion.

  • Patent number: 5642855
    Abstract: A one piece form is provided for Z-folding into an outgoing mailer. Upon removal of tear strips from two sides of the outgoing mailer and removable panels, the remainder of the folded form can be made into a return envelope. The composite form uses four panels to define a sealing flap for the outgoing mailer, a contiguous second panel for receiving printed information to define a back panel for the outgoing mailer, a contiguous third panel to define an insert for the outgoing mailer and the front panel of the return envelope and a contiguous fourth panel to define the front panel of the outgoing mailer and eventually the back panel for the return envelope.

  • Patent number: 4191402
    Abstract: The form is constructed of a face sheet, one or more underlying sheets which are die cut into a series of strip portions and a back sheet. The face sheet is divided into an ordered array of sets of designated spaces with each set overlying a strip portion of an underlying sheet so that information recorded on the face sheet is simultaneously recorded on the underlying strips. In addition, the designated spaces may be arranged to impart a cross-footing ability. The underlying strips are removable for use in other processes while the face sheet is retained for control and/or recording purposes. These strips may also contain serial numbers or other coded indicia coded to the face sheet.
