9. Pre-printing
• Litho printing process
The image is made of a polymer coating
applied to a flexible aluminium plate
Areas are etched to be hydrophilic or
hydrophobic to attract or repel the oil-based
ink
Print either direct or offset (via rubber sheet)
600 – 1200 dpi possible
• Digital
Like e.g. inkjet printing
Charged media with powder or inkjets sprays
Requires UV curing
Slight loss of quality on edges

20. Level 1 Security Feature Options
• 2-Dimensional Hologram
Light diffracting images that exhibit dimensional characteristics. When
turned or viewed from a variety of angles, image appears to move or
change
• Guilloche Security Printing
Guilloche patterns combine complex line detail in an animated wave
pattern.
• Kinetic/Animation Effects
Kinetic patterns are a series of complex, straight lines or shapes. As the
viewing angle of the card is changed, the kinetic image moves across the
card, giving it the effect of motion.

21. Level 1 Security Feature Options cont.
• 2-Channel Image (Flip Image)
Holographic optical feature that consists of two distinct images (art or
text) that occupy the same space within the hologram and then shifts
from one image to the second by slightly rotating the angle of the image
right to left.
• Latent Image (Ghost Image)
Holographic optical feature consists of an image (usually a repeating text
pattern) that is originated into the hologram so that it only refracts light
and is therefore apparent to a viewer at an extreme viewing angle.
• Pseudo Color
Holographic optical effect that allows for the assignment of approximate
coloration to holographic artwork thus the image appears in near "true
color" at a specific viewing angle.
• 2-Channel Image (Flip Image)

text) that occupy the same space within the hologram and then shifts
from one image to the second by slightly rotating the angle of the image

22. Level 2 Security Feature Options
• Security Ink Printing
Combination of ultraviolet ink (covert feature) and colour mica ink (overt feature)
Under a UV light or black light, text will fluoresce blue/purple/green
Under normal light, mica ink will shift colors at another viewing angle.
• Microtext Printing
High resolution holographic imagery between 2400-3200 dots per inch (dpi)
Readable by using a handheld magnification device or microscope only (up to
200X)
Fine text printing at 8x, 10x and 12x readable
