GLOSSARY 62 Adhesive Side Printing Adhesive side printing offers the option of printing on BOTH sides of the label, whether it's the same message or different ones. For example, a label on a clear bottle with a transparent liquid. The front of the label conveys the product's brand information, while the back of the label, viewable through the liquid contents, may serve to communicate ingredients and directions for use. No need for two separate labels! Efficiency at its finest. Not available on removable stock. Back Slit A back slit speeds up the application process by providing quick release of the liner. Backwards Copy The text or image is printed backwards, allowing the label to be applied on the inside of a window, yet readable from the outside. An option for the decal placement on windows, such as store fronts or car parking permits. Bend & Peel A square cut label with a slit on one end for easier peeling and removal. Bleed A bleed is a printed image that extends to the edge of the label for maximum printing coverage so there’s no border or extra white space. Artwork must include a 1/16” extension on all sides. Copy Position Also known as the unwind; signifies which direction the copy comes off the roll. This is critical for machine applied labels. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 BACK SLIT LINER BEND AND PEEL TAB FRONT OF LABEL Core Size Core size refers to the cardboard cylinder that the labels are wrapped around when finished on a roll. Cores come in 1" and 3" diameters, but additional sizes are available upon request. Draw / Repeat Refers to the dimension from the top edge of one label to the top edge of the next label. Length + Gap = Draw / Repeat See Draw / Repeat diagram on Inside Back Cover. Embossing Embossing involves pressing an image into paper so it is raised above the paper's surface. This raised, or embossed, image subtly stands out on the paperstock, and although ink or foil is not involved, it's an effective way to infuse some prestige into the design. Flood Coat Flood coat is the process of applying ink over the entire label to change the color of the stock prior to printing the design. Foil Stamping Foil stamping is the process of imprinting using foil, a die and pressure. The result? A metallic-colored impression that shimmers and shines and captures the eye. freeform™ - Laser Cut Freeform™ uses a high-powered laser beam to cut material rather than using a traditional hard die. They can be laser cut into any shape you can think of such as cars, stars, fruits, animals, etc. Gap The space between two labels; 1/8" is standard. See Draw / Repeat diagram on Inside Back Cover. High Capacity Rolls When a large amount of labels is needed, a high capacity roll provides high quality and quantity on a single large roll of labels. Kiss Cut Kiss cut is cutting a label so that the backing sheet remains intact but the sticker waste around the cut image is removed. What's left behind is a unique-shaped label on a larger backing sheet. No fumbling fingers when it comes time to peel off the backing! CORE
